Forced Break in Gangwon-do

I knew i had so much to prepare as im heading towards a new decisive chapter in my life, Grad school, but i couldnt turn down the offer. My homestay family, i should just call them MY FAMILY cuz i love them so much..They invited me to a week of touring around Gangwon do province, Pyeongchang to be exact!

I absolutely loved the waking up every morning on the birds' sound, as we stayed at this beautiful pension called, Magic within the forest? if roughly translated from Korean;;..It was so peaceful and clean. And we had pretty much everything we need to cook and all BUT! Here is the best part, it was such a GOURMET WEEK!

There isn t possibly a famous place to eat that we didnt stop by! Enough said, let's bring out the evidence!

 

 The pension

 My korean mum, isnt she a looker?

I would absolutely recommed this province to all of you guys. Pyeongchang is hosting the 2018 winter Olympics, and it definelty has the potential for such a big event. 

It may look a little country for the locals, but trust me, it's going to be extremely charming to Foreigners once they visit it!

 

Bibim Vs Nengmyun~!

What do you prefer among the 2? Bimbim bab? Neng myung? I have a hard time deciding what i love more...so i order BOTH hehehe

I did share with my friend though, so i`m not much of a monster,you people 'sigh'..

Then I had to try that WANG PPANG (King bread as in Big?), and it was as nig as the photo shows~!

The stuffing left me hungry for more! Aaaah...!! Somebody stop me please!

Now heading to another delish~ destination...no hints this time, you`ll just have to wait -O^

spicy Ojing-oh heaven!

Right after class starts the food hunt! This time, we were craving spiciness!!..Fried rice and squid to be exact! 

Seafood lovers must try this~ It`s very flavory thanks to the sauce added before it gets cooked. So you get to savor the taste, not suffer because of the spiciness!

As always, enough talking, here comes the photos~

After that, we needed a dessert break..OF COURSE!

SMOOTHIE KING`s healthy and delish~ plain yogurt with oatmeal,nuts, and fuits.

Are you already looking forward to my next post?..you`d better~!

Isnt`it Loooovely~

That`s Baskin n Robbins New York cheesecake ice cream! Real cheesecake that you enjoy along with ice cream!

And this is how i like it..with extra topping whipped cream and a BROWNIE. When are you getting yours?

De Drop and De Galgusu.

Work hard. Party hard, this has always been my motta in life. After such a long semester of exams and non stop assignements, i had to take some time off from all of that drama and just...DANCE!

The destination is DE DROP, in Choengdam dong (around Apgujeong). One of the trendiest lounge/club/bar in Seoul. But what`s really special about it is that its owner is a male veterant model! Even the people that go chilling there are moslty models or in the fashion industry. So it`s a MUST GO for those who appreciate eye candy and selected crowds rather a whole binch of people stacked in one place...

Some of the next photos are from dedrop.co.kr and others are from meetup.com an online  community that organizes many events, or attend some together. Which was the case, as we went for a thursday ladies night at De drop! Beautiful night.

Enough talking, here comes the photos~

We danced till Dawn!

The ''eye candy'' i was talking about hehe Models from the same agency, who were extremely sweet by the way.

 Especially Junghyun, who started calling me Nuna (big sis) right after a few minutes of talking, he was just so sweet!

After that all night dance work out, and good socializing, we headed to this near Galgu su place. It was a huge bowl of noodles with seafood and veggies, served along with Tea. 

That`s it for now, as for my next post...hint!

When i say BUDE~ you say JJIGE~

YES~! It`s big, it`s full, it`s delish, it`s BUDEJJIGE~!

This korean representative dish is one of my favourite! Not necessarily a fan of pork though, but the seafood and ttokbugi and all the other healthier additions make up for it!
It`s a little spicy, but you can discuss that when you are ordering! Also, as the photo shows, it`s a dish much more enjoyed with beautiful company!

Plus, it`s a big scale babe that you may not be able to handle alone, although you WILL be tempted not to share hehehe..,

As i always say, enough talking, here comes the photos~

Can`t wait, what a torture!!

For ramen, it`s an `all you can eat` policy !!

And~..NOW ATTACK!!

Coming back for sure! As for my next post, i`ll give you a hint as always -_^

What`s best to beat Exams stress??

 Sweet food~!! That was a no brainer,huh? At least,that`s the right answer for me! Everytime i`m stressed out, i find myself craving for brownies, waffles, cheesecake..yeah, you can tell i`m stressed out now hehe

Around my school, hankuk univ. of foreign studies, you can find this little cafe YOGER PRESSO, with the kindest people working there! They even make my favourite Americano stronger for free~ Plus, their brownies and buns are super delish~ Healthy Yogurt Ice cream is also an option for those on a summer watch!

Enough talking, here come the photos~

Isn`t that some motivation to do homework~? hehehe

 

Brownie my love..Why so Big? Why so Yummy? Why So Cheap? Another Yoger Presso affordable delicacy~

Vanilla cream bun & Cinnamon Waffle at YOGER PRESSO, probably the cheapest coffee house around~!

I wish you all the best of luck on your exams! And for those awaiting TOPIK results, like me, FIGHTING!

As for my next post, here is a little hint...
