Day Number 1

The trip was in a way so funny (even though it took us 18 hours to get here). We started early in the morning from Helsinki, arrived in London early and it was morning when we arrived in Seoul. The trip from London to Seoul was so comfortable! I watched a few movies and slept like a baby. For dinner we had some delicious korean beef.

Nicole showing y´all the hot pepper paste. Got to admit that it was the perfect spice to the dish! 
We were nervously waiting for our luggage and after that straight to McDonalds, where our meeting point was. Immediately we were greeted by a korean girl, such a sweetheart. 


Nicole was excited that she got her bag! We waited for the bus that was supposed to take us to the university. When I step in the bus, I see these funny curtains and the bus looks like a circus. After 2 hours we dropped off a few students before we continued to Sewha Hall, the dormitory where I will be living for the next 10 months. The wheel from my big bag fell of at some point, but I managed to get my luggage all the way to the campus. We entered the lobby where we checked in, filled in a few documents and after that I finally got my key. One of the students, tutors or what I should call her, anyways her name is Erica, can´t remember or spell her korean name, she will be my room mate for my whole stay. She has been so friendly and helpful! The picture below shows the most of my dorm. My bed is on the right side and Ericas on the left. 

After I got my stuff into my apartment I got bored. Where is the Wifi connection and I needed a shower so badly but where are the towels? Sweaty as I was, I forced myself out in the rain to search for a Wifi connection, to reach Nicole, who didn't answer. I made a new friend, Charlotte from France. We decided to go for dinner together and do some shopping. After many laughs and many kilometers, we found the things we needed! 

More pictures from the school, dorm and much more will come up later. Today it has been quite rainy, so I decided that I will take my camera with me on a sunny day! Kamsamkneedah!
