You're probably wondering why we're back in back in the USA. That's because right before Chuseok my phone found it's way back to me, courtesy of my aunt who sent it in a wooden tea box. While there wasn't a lot of things I had a chance to do over the two days during the [...]
Sunnyyoo is a Mexican restaurant in Yangpyeong a short distance from Yongmun station. It's part art gallery of sunflower paintings using coffee beans, part cafe that sells baseball caps, and part Mexican restaurant. It's one of my friends favorite spots.

Between 1805 and 1910 some 3,000 acres of land past winding roads and surrounded by magical ancient lime stone fences was home to the third largest Shaker community. You can do a variety of stuff at the village, even stay at the Inn which is about 13 different restored Shaker buildings. (About $110 per night) [...]

Once a drugstore built during the civil war with a soda fountain added during prohibition has now been refurbished by the Kentucky Fudge Company.
