Busan, South Korea


Went to Busan, which is South Korea's 2nd largest city with the guy who lives in the flat above mine.
We took a 2 hour bullet train.
Imagine if you could take a train from St. Louis to Chitown in 2 hours...sigh.
We stayed in a jimjilbang.
8 bucks a night.

You sleep on a heated floor with a bunch of other people in uniform pajamas.














Mosaic gasmask.










This is how Koreans socialize.

































Cherry Blossoms everywhere.






















Traditional Korean music is rad. Drums and gongs put together to sound like a very rhythmic train with a huge downbeat.






























Wim Wenders! See
Paris, Texas and Wings of Desire if you haven't already.














A Buddhist Temple. The all have free food, and Buddhist.
























































































































An advertisement that was "jammed" by a drunk guy with a cigarette.

The scariest thing I have ever seen.
