After a an hour in San Fransisco traffic, a twelve hour flight, and a three hour bus ride later I arrived in Seoul's Gangnam district where I would stay for the week long work training.
Subway station #222
Seoul streets
and of course, #littlekids, #socute, #iamacreeper
The next day I went exploring Seoul. Training for work started the next day, so for now this would be my only opportunity to do some sight seeing
First, Bongeunsa Temple. A Buddhist temple situated in the midst of the bustling city.

In the evening I met with Jessica, a very close friend from college (TUNAMELTS shout-out! ). Jessica has been living and working in Seoul since we graduated college. She treated us to dinner and took us to Seoul's Lantern Festival.
first thing we saw was this LANTERN TEMPLE!
The festival was held at Cheonggyecheon, the public stream part in downtown Seoul.
one of the many elaborate pieces on the river
under the bridge was my favorite piece
a collaborative piece
and up close... notes written!

Here is a video of us walking through the lantern temple!
