Our Town



Here are a few pictures from our new area of Seoul. We live in the mountains, mountain number 4 to be exact, and have really been enjoying hiking and exploring the alleys that make Korea amazing. We have found the best of both worlds in our new home - a bustling city and refreshing mountain escape!


Sadang, an area close to us, has an abundance of Japanese food and bars (as you can see).


This is a market area where we shop on occasion, but mostly enjoy walking through, smelling the products for sale!



Almost every evening we climb to the peak above, and the view is our reward. We started climbing daily in preparations for Mount Fuji in August!
On the weekends, we climb to the top peak and hike along the ridge.
Scattered throughout the area on the mountain side are various bunkers that are barbwired off. Pretty interesting but dangerous if you aren't paying attention!
