Saturday Afternoon: Trip to Suwon

So on the Saturday I was last blogging about, after taking the Blue House tour in the morning I went to Suwon in the early afternoon. Suwon is around 40 minutes by bus from Seoul and is one of its suburbs (quite large suburb I might add, with more than 1 million inhabitants). The last time I was in Korea I stayed in Suwon so going back there many memories came back to my mind. Many of the old shops are still there but a lot of things have changed of course. I met with Maria, an old friend from Sweden. We met around 4 years ago at Ajou University and she was staying in Korea for a long time, returned to Sweden and now has been back to Korea again for some time. It was really great to catch up. We first had sushi in my favorite sushi shop, which fortunately is still there (but unfortunately has nearly doubled its prices). Then we moved to a coffee place for more talking of course and afterwards went shopping. Later on we went to Janbeers, the bar where I used to hang out around 3-4 nights every week and had a couple of beers (with the small intermission of spaghetti in an Italian restaurant which is in the same building). Unfortunately I couldn't stay too long because I had to catch a bus back to Seoul in order to get the last subway back to Hanyang University (and I had to keep curfew of course ;)
