First impressions

koreans are blessed -- high cheekbones, glowing skin, good strong physiques. kainez. ang daming guwapo at maganda. i actually literally stepped back in surprise when i saw the skin of the guy who delivered my room service lunch; he must have migrated to seoul from lothlorien.

the density of coffee shops per square mile is astounding.

i saw more goyard bags go by in fifteen minutes in myeong-dong than i ever have in my lifetime. maganda pala sila sa personal. gusto ko na sila.

old ladies are majorly turned out, just like old ladies in paris. their favorite accessory: visors. this completely puzzled me until marlon returned from his skincare field work and provided the missing piece. the visors are for skincare purposes -- that's how they keep that phenomenal skin glowing well into old age. that's what i call dedication.

people are extremely helpful.

men wear actual suits to work. really well-cut suits to boot. again, just like paris.

kukur seems to be the metropolitan fashion statement -- as in kukurtinahin. the shops are hung full of lacy, sheer, shapeless dresses and very large shirts in muted colors. i think i'll stick to shoes and bags on this trip.

the city is great for walking.

traffic is bad, and rush hour is worst at about 10:30 p.m. that means people go home from work at roughly 9 p.m. 

there are very few tourists, which is nice.

that's it for now. good night, i'm exhausted.
