A lot of the riverside area was under construction, looks like they’re putting in a ton of flowers and nice walking areas, which is awesome. And, of course, the laborers are ajummas in their usual neon colors, floral print sleeves and visor hats. In Cheongju, South Korea.

Awesome cafe in Cheongju where the tables are in little cubbies and you’re encouraged to leave your mark.

So many pictures

I feel like I’ve pretty much only been posting photos lately!

Sorry if I’ve been bugging all of you by constantly uploading closeups of flower and shots of apartment buildings.

Since I fixed the settings on my camera I’ve felt the need to get out there and take as many pictures as I can before I leave, since the last year and a half of pictures are useless. Of course, they’re not actually useless at all, just still mad at myself that I haven’t been using my camera to the best of its abilities.

Couple that with the fact that it’s constantly beautiful out and I’m leaving in two months, which means I’ve been running around travelling and getting outside more than I have since September.

Anyway, bear with me! I went to Cheongju to hang out with some friends this weekend and we took advantage of spring to take a walk around the river and downtown.
