WEATHER/CLIMATE

The time differences;Seoul is 2 hours ahead than indonesia. Korea has 4 seasons summer, spring, autumn, and winter. Spring start from march to may, Summer from June to August, Autumn from september to november and lastly winter from December until March.

My trip this time was in autumn, I think it's the best season to visit korea, WHY? Because the weather is not too hot, actually it's pretty cold for me. Sometimes there will be a light rain, so don't forget to bring your umbrella ( Be sure to check weatherapps on your phone).


My visit was from 4 - 13 November during the peak season of autumn, almost every corner of the city was gorgeous! It's dominated with golden and red colour. LOVELY!!



STAY TUNED!!

Ewha Woman University 

One of the best spot to enjoy autumn vibe. Ewha is a womans university, means it's university only for girls. It's one of the popular shopping districts that you should visit.















The ewha womans university area is one of the most popular shopping districs in seoul. Clothing and accessory stores in the area sell affordable and stylish fashions for young people.

After taking a bus, we decided to take a walk to the top while enjoying the view. ENJOY!!







The famous love padlock in seoul! If you visited here with your couple you can purchase the padlock here, and do remember to write your name and your couple on it and hang on it. SPREAD THE LOVE BABY AND SEAL THE LOVE XOXO.

I'm not buying it because i'm still single anyway sigh... So just enjoy the photos lol!



Many people threw the key away to ensure no one finds the key to unlock the padlocks, meaning that their love will last forever. DUH!!
