Journey burger

We have found something awesome. Yes it's another post about western food. But this post is also about the best burger I have ever had. And at a reasonable price too! We have gone here many times since we first found it. It is hidden away in an alleyway and has a travel theme. The staff all speak English and the food is awesome.

It seems to me that in Korea the really good places aren't more expensive. If you pay more you will get something more fancy I guess. But you don't have to pay extra for the really good food, but you have to find it. While journey is so nice it makes it harder to go looking for new places than just eating at journey, I really wanna find more places like this. So we have to keep on exploring. In the meantime you can have look at this awesome burger








Mobile phone cases

One thing Korea is crazed about are mobile phone covers. They don't just protect your phone but show who you ARE. They also change your phone to huge bulks If you want. Like this one we saw today



I will

Quiznos subs



We are getting a bit sick of Korean food after a month.  That is mostly the one on campus. A good escape for us then is going to Quiznos sub close to our dorm. I just realized that this is a very boring post for most people not living in Korea.  For us though, good western food is worth blotting about.  Basically it's just a slow subway chain. But we get bread! And they use veggies on stuff.  A bit more expensive than our normal breakfast,  but once in a blue moon its worth it.

New phone, new possibillitys

So i got a korean phone now with 4g and wifi everywhere. That means i can blog on the move. So hopefully it can help stop my dryspell. Phone posts will be shorter and contain pictures i take on the move. Like this post. Written in the middle of a crowded subway car. Ill try to catch you guys up with what has happened lately, but there is alot of things to fix with university so it might take a bit of time.

Korean Food: Man-Du

This is a short feature on a Korean dish I have really come to like. Its called man-du, or Dumplings in English. I figured i should start writing about the food I eat, as my daily routine might be less exiting after a while. So this is a new segment called Korean Food! Welcome


Don't they look delicious? Well they are!

I have had experience with Dumplings before, but Korean man-du are a bit different. They can be filled with normal pork filling or kimchi, or of course any other thing. The kimchi variant is a bit spicy, which is a good thing.


This place is in Nok-Du, which is a area favoured by students because of its close proximity to the SNU campus. This is a man who makes really good man-duh. He is one of many who keep shops open  24/7. We ate here at Friday night, after we had been out drinking, and also on Saturday for lunch. The man-du are ready to eat, but are steamed before served so they are, well, steaming hot. 


This type of street food is available any time, any place, and is dirt cheep. These man-du cost me 1 500 Won, or around 7,50NOK. They were super delicious, and quite filling!


Mmmmm. This is one thing I really love about Korea.
