This past weekend, Mike and I headed to Busan with nine friends. It was one last big hurrah before the end of the school year craziness descends and some of our friends pack up and leave Korea for good. Bittersweet!

We were last in Busan for the Busan International Film Festival. While the city was packed for the event, the beaches were not. It was totally different this time around. The beaches were teeming with people, but we didn't let that bother us. We grabbed chairs, umbrellas, snacks and lay around reading and chatting for hours. 

Mike cooked up a sweet little video of our time in Busan last weekend. We've all been watching it on repeat!

This past weekend, Mike and I made our way down to Busan with a few friends. We checked out a few films that were part of the Busan International Film Festival and hung around the beach.

A dose of realism here: I thought I was going to be hanging around on the beach like this every weekend. Incheon (where we're living) is right on the ocean, but it unfortunately does not have beautiful sandy beaches like Busan. It has a booming sea harbour - not quite so pretty. That being said, I haven't actually checked out Wolmido island yet, so I should perhaps refrain from judgement.

In any case, it's awfully nice that we're easily able to escape to sandy ocean beaches whenever we so choose! As someone who grew up smack dab in the middle of the continent, that feels like quite the luxury.
