Snow Buster means Snow Sledding!

hello guyssss! Merry Christmas!
I miss white christmas so badly. hahaha. well, I dont celebrate Christmas, but you know Christmas's atmosphere is always so lovely.

Today i will introduce the good activity for your winter holiday in Korea. It's called 눈썰매 (Nun Seolmae).. or you can  say it Snow Sledding.

I think Snow Sledding is the best choice for someone who cant do ski. You can still play with snow without spending much money for renting ski equipments. As I heard from my Korean friends, when you cant skate, it means you cant do ski as well. wuhahaha. So, all of them recommend me to do Snow Sledding instead of Ski.

There are so many places in Seoul, Korea which open snow sledding field during winter season. Here are some places:
1. Ttukseom Hangang Park, Seoul
2. Snow Sledding Park in Seoul Grand Park, Seoul
3. Everland Amusement Park, Gyeonggi-Do

I tried the third one. I went to Everland with Luna eonni, and we tried Snow Buster!!! :D
My friend said that usually there's super long queue for Snow Buster, but I guess I was so lucky that day, so we didnt have to queue!

First we have to take tire for our self and go up with escalator. you will arrive in half minute! hohohoho.


We took some pictures first before sledding. hahaha. Do you know T-Express? Its the famous wooden rollercoaster. Yes, it's right behind us!


take a pic with the tire!


we had to  ride the sleigh one by one. Luna eonni tried to do first.  We're both so excited that time huahahha.

here we go!

bye eonni! hahaha
holla snow! its my turn~
It was faster than I thought to be honest. I prepared my camera to record my experience, but you know, It ended with superb-shaking-video. Dont get dizzy when watching this, okay?

 

After like 30 seconds, you will arrive. It's so addicting so I swear you want to do it again for the second time.



That's all! hope you can enjoy your winter holiday in Korea~ see u on my next post~ hohohoho. Merry Christmas!

Sail the Night Away in Gwangan Bridge

October yuhuuuuu~ my all time favorite
this year time flies so fast! 2 months left, and 2014 will be over T_T

anyway, last year on October, I went to Busan with other bloggers. I was the only one Indonesian blogger that time, but it's really unforgettable trip ever~
One of the unforgettable moment is taking cruise in Gwangan Bridge!
Its my second time experiencing such a ferry cruise trip. but guess what my first time taking ferry was provided by KTO as well! hahaha. I took ferry cruise on one fine day in Hangang,, in the morning.. on the late of autumn~ and freezing like hell.
I will make post about HanGang ferry cruise as well next time. so move on~

We started taking ferry on 6PM local time.. Its nearby Igidae Park.. Im not sure about the location name, because I dont know Busan area well T_T


Group picture ^^ Go Go Ssingggg~~~ credit:buzzkorea
Have u ever watched We Got Married? some couples took this ferry before. Marai told me this one. well, I believe her anyway. she's such a big fan of Kpop. kekekke

blogger from China

I was trying rich-girl-pose-in-luxury-ferry

 It takes 1 hour trip. So basically, we take the ferry, go under the Gwangan Bridge, and comeback to the starting point.

My camera almost run out of battery that time. Its so hard to make a good picture one when the camera is in low-battery. it always went blurieeee.



The Gwangan Bridge was sooooooo close with our ferry as if I can touch it with my own hand. It's so beautiful at night trust me! huhu It will be great if having this kind experience with my baby. huahahhaa

beautiful gwangan bridge

Marai and I took so many pictures, even though it didnt have enough lighting that time. You know, its like 100000 times more beautiful than in the picture.



And then, the ferry staff recommended us to use the flashlight. Im really hate to use flashlight, but I tried to use it once, and oh, it turned out really nice!



Since it's on the night, the wave was not kidding. I had to hang on tightly because of the wave.

SNSD? kekekek im genie for ur wish!

What's the best part? We had BBQ party in ferry with wine! kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. My team member always said I'm a cow killer because I like eating meat very much.

I didnt drink it I swear. Its just for picture. hahaha

Last but not least, my favorite girl had her birthday that time. KTO staff prepared a suprised cake for her. Happy bday Marai!

That's all. T_T and after that we cameback to the land (finally). And we went to eat Milmyeon for dinner.
I dont know about the ferry price, but if you want to know, you can check this site

Do you want to put this in your itinerary? ^^

Trying Korean Street Food is an Absolute Must!

heihoooo~ holla hello hi

sorry for super late posting. I've been so busy recently. and I was super lazy to do blogging last week

since 2 hours left to my lunch time, im going to post about food! I love eating eating eating so much. something goes wrong i guess, because my weight is only 41kg =.="

making u starving? sorry :p
Do u know about street food?

Street food is usually ready-to-eat food or drink sold in a street or other public place, such as a market or fair, by a hawker or vendor, often from a portable stall.
Trying street food whenever you have overseas trip should be in your to-do-list. each country has their own unique taste, so you should try it.


In this post, I will introduce some of Korean street foods which are always being my favorite.

Hotteok. Its delicious pancake with filling such as peanut or honey etc etc etc.


In Busan, there's famous Hotteok that usually be appeared in many Korean dramas. It's located in Busan International Film Festival street. You can easily find this stall since you will find a very long queue in front of it.
The price is so cheap. only 1000 won!

one of Hotteok stall in Myeongdong

My friend, Devy really really really like eating Hotteok. One day we went to Myeongdong, Seoul to have Hotteok, and she bought so many Hotteok. "I'll skip my dinner tonight. Lets have Hotteok for our dinner, eh?"
For me, I like Honey Hotteok more than peanut Hotteok


The second is 핫바. Its pronounced as "Hatba".. Actually this is from English word "Hotbar". 핫바 is the Korean style of Hotdog..
There's so many kinds of Hot Bar, such as squid, cheese, tteok, chilli and many more. The price is around 2000~2500 won.


Next is the Twisted Potato Chip. It is a sliced, twisted and swirled potato that is deep fried and then coated in a cheese flavored salt. Crunchy and delicious. The price is 2000 won. Eating this in winter season really makes your body warm. but you have to eat that as soon as buying it because it will get cold easily.


meeee~
Thats all!~ Those are my top-3-korean street foods. How about you?  

Which korean street food do you want to try?

*I did take all those picture by myself, but i never put any watermarks on it. so please never steal it without credit
you find a very long queue in front of the stall

Fly to the Sky with Sky Lift in Seoul Grand Park

Seoul Grand Park is one of famous place in Seoul. It has so many attractions, like amusement park, zoo, botanical carden, camping site, etc etc etc.

It's been a year since my last year trip to Seoul Zoo.
I've tried to go there with Yudra, Wongso and Stefanny who had summer school in Inha university last year.

After finishing our lunch in KFC (my first time spending so much money for buying KFC. KFC in Seoul is much much much expensive than in Indonesia), we went to Seoul Zoo.



KFC bulgogi burger!

take a pic before eating
 The Zoo is quite far from the main gate. You can go there by bus or by sky lift . If you want to take a bus, you should pay 1000 won for each person.


main entarance. turn left to the amusement park, turn right to the zoo ^^


Since sky lift looked more interesting, so we chose to ride it.
The price is 5000 won for 1 person. We bought 4 tickets. Yudra and I were in first cable car while Stefanny and Wongso were in the next one after us.
It's so funny when I looked back and found Wongso's frozen pose riding the sky lift.


5000 won each person

freeze kekekeke

our handsome Yudra :)

meeeee in pinky pinky

Its so interesting! I mean, I've ever tried riding this kind of thing in Genting, Malaysia. and that's 1000 times scarier than this one! I swear.



We can see the beautiful scenery from the sky lift. Seoul Grand Park is so big! You cant visit all of them in one day trip.






After around 15 minutes of ride, we arrived in Seoul Zoo.

ah, one thing! If you ever watched 4men Music Video "Thank You", you might know this scene? Yes its in skylifter in Seoul Grand Park! ^^



my favorite Music Video

And this is Yudra and I trying to copy the scene. hahaha. similar? =))
