Hi, oh yes I check right after writing to u. How is it in Japan? Do u enjoy there? Worth of visiting? Korean food is more hotter, they use chilly almost everything. I found something called dumplings, maybe??? They look like pasta, filled with vegetables or such. Cheap, very good and seems to be fast food for locals. All the soups I ate were great, even the red chilly HOT HOT version. =) Price between 3500-4500 won was typical. Really, u don\'t have pay more for good meal. Places like North Korean border (little boring, they don\'t show much), Seoul tower, Lotte World and under ground shopping malls were special. And places where locals go to party. Seoul is a big city. I liked more countryside and even Busan and a city called Gyeongju near Busan. But, seems to me u have good atitude so go for it. En joy Seoul =) It was nice that u wrote =) I\'m on my way to Turkey, Istanbul next ( I think) Miska

Hi, yes I was in Bong house. Not that great place. I would recommendate Lee & No hostel, much better. Bong had little weird toalet / shower facilities, escpecialy downstairs where I was. Uuh. Lee & No, like living in home. Bong, just a place to sleep. Seoul has lot to see. Use metro card, that\'s cheap and easy way to go around. Very safe city, no problems. If lost, always can ask, people help even they don\'t speak english. Tip, take also tourist map in Korean. Because u can read english map, locals can\'t. So show the Korean map. I travelled around Korea, I only stay Seoul something like 4 days. Enough for me. So it depends what kind of things U and friends are interesred. Oh, try local food, it is so cheap and good. No mather u don\'t know what do u eat. It is 90% of cases excellent. Cheaper to eat in locals than to go take a coffee in Starbucks. Anything else?
