Hello!

Welcome to Often Away. I use this space to document my travels and hope you are inspired to get up and move!

Best Friend's Reunion Vacation Part Deux

Best Friend's Reunion Vacation Part Deux

Best friend reunions in Asia seem to be our thing now.  It's the only way we see each other now that we both teach abroad for a living and we're pretty good at vacation.  Our trip last year in Thailand was pretty epic, but in Korea we only had so much time for fun...and the weather didn't cooperate with us.   IMG_3744 IMG_3755

We started the day eating live octopus - Sannakji (낙지) - which I'm sure Kasey wishes he could he eat all the time... Instead of the beach weekend we had planned in Busan, it rained.  So we changed gears and headed to the Trick Eye Museum  for a little art therapy.  The museum is a 3D art gallery where you can interact with the art to make it look like you're a part of the painting. IMG_3743

We probably laughed a little too hard while we took all of this - definitely a perfect rainy day activity!
