There is a dog beach on the east coast that we really like – but it’s only open for like a month a year. We went once last year, but this year we went back twice – Once by ourselves, once with Summer’s parents. Both times were a ton of fun! So the first time…
Where is Yangpyeong? What is Merrydoghaus? Good questions! Yangpyeong is the area east of Seoul and north of Wonju. It’s basically just mountains and trees and stuff. We found this really, really nice spot which I guess you can call a pension, it’s 9 mini-houses with a central gathering area and a pool. What’s special…
Things were beginning to feel “normal” in Korea (in terms of Covid) so we started traveling a bit more. We decided to do a trip in July, just one night, down to Busan. It had been awhile since we went down there last so we wanted to go! Made it to the local high speed…
Well spring sprang with some cherry blossoms. Waffle also ran a lot. We found literally the best bakery in the area near our house, which is so fresh, so tasty, and not too sweet! Waffle went to the park Waffle slept Waffle shedded We ate with our friend, “Sushi Hee”, in Gangnam A new place…
For my birthday we went to Jeju (again) but this time just the two of us! We started out back at home with a birthday dinner, at a pick-your-own crab restaurant. The best part is they do all the work for you! All the legs are pre-cut so taking the meat out is easy-peasy! Only…
Unfortunately… Travel has been extremely difficult with covid. We thought Korea might loosen their quarantine restrictions for travel by the time Christmas came, but unfortunately they didn’t. It wasn’t until recently (late summer 2021) that they lessened restrictions, but even then those are only for individuals vaccinated in Korea. As in, they don’t accept vaccination…
Been awhile since I updated! In November we went on a trip with Summer’s parents to Jeju as a way to thank them for letting us stay at their house during quarantine when we first moved to Korea. So… off to drop Waffle off at the doggy hotel! We flew out of Gimpo, which is…
The end of August and beginning of September brought three consecutive Typhoons, all within 14 days of each other. While it wasn’t too bad with not too much damage, overall this year’s monsoon season brought 59 consecutive days of rain. I am tired of rain. I am tired of typhoons. I will say that the…
Last month we took off to the east coast of Korea to visit the beach – not just any beach, but a dog-specific beach!! Why the east coast when we live next to the west coast? Well, this particular place is dogs only and it’s pretty fenced in, so we felt safe with Waffle being…
We knew ahead of time that we’d be stuck in quarantine for two weeks once we landed in Korea – there’s just no way around it. What we didn’t know is that it’s not easy to quarantine! At first you think, “oh you just sit around, how amazing!” But once you’re stuck inside and you…
