'cause Busan is definitely more than just a day trip! :)

Obviously, what I wanted for my Busan trip didn't happen 'cause I wasn't able to blog as frequent as I hoped for... again.

I think the only place that I have no picture of is Seomyeon although it was one of the places I visited frequently. However, if you're into clubbing or you want to see how the night life is in Busan then that's the place to be. There is also an underground mall and countless restaurants and stores in that area. KALGUKSU!!!! <3

While there is a station called Yeouido, the best station for you if you want to visit the river side is Yeouinaru Station. We were looking for the KBS Building so we explored Yeouido first but it was too big and too cold so we ended up looking for just the park and gave up looking for the building.

The coldness we felt was intensified as soon as we got nearer the river. This was the time (of winter) when it was single digit in Celsius for + degrees, if I'm explaining it right. The coldest we experienced for this winter was -11 and the hottest was 9.

Had I known that I'll be able to come to Korea for two consecutive winters, I would have bought myself a proper winter wear last year. HAHAHA! Charot. Tas pag bibili na, ayoko na kasi nanghihinayang ako dahil hindi naman masyado nagagamit! HAHAHAHA.

What I was wearing above: tank top, heat tech, long sleeves, down jacket... stockings and leggings... thick socks and gloves. Definitely not enough for some people but I thank my adipose tissues for helping me feel warm. lol 'Yang down jacket na 'yan, I bought sa ukay when I climbed Mt. Pulag last 2014. Sulit na sulit, 200.00 ko, besh.

Namsan Tower

If you watch Kdramas, then that's definitely one of the many places you can recognize. I haven't blogged about my Namsan experiences but here is a link to the post about Kdrama Feels in Naksan in Dongdaemun and Seoul Fortress link: here.

Han River (E-land) Cruise Ship at the back

I SEOUL U

There are several I Seoul U's scattered in the parks of Seoul but this is the only one that I am able to visit so far.

Tokyo, Rome, London, Sydney, and Paris? Soon?? HAHAHA!

On warmer days, a lot of people visit here to go cycling, picnics etc. The only reason why not a lot of people were out that day 'cause it was tooooooo cold. Di lang talaga halata sa pic kasi underdressed. :))

Took identical pictures for two consecutive winters.. mahaba na buhok ko konti don sa for this year. Di masyado kita 'yung sa last year kasi naka-beanie pala ko. Ahahahaa. Sana 2020 ulit. :))

This was the only time we splurged on food during our whole stay in Macau.

I initially thought that I'd appreciate Macau especially Cotai Strip because it's considered the Las Vegas of Asia. However, the thing that I liked the most when touring around was the significant Portuguese influence you can experience there. That mix of culture was very interesting, tbh.

We booked the voucher from Klook.

Although there are a lot of overlooking places in Macau, Macau Tower is definitely the best if you wanna see a 360 view of Macau and even the border of mainland China.

There are parts of the observation deck where you'll be walking on top of a glass floor. Only the first step is scary, you'll get a hang of it after some time.

After roaming around the observation deck, we went to the restaurant for our afternoon tea.

They offer eat-all-you-can for dinner and lunch but we opted for the afternoon tea because of our itinerary. Not bad! Since you eat the food slowly, you actually feel full plus, we were there to enjoy the view anyway.

Had several servings of their milk tea which was unlimited. So good!

One of the main thing you'd notice when you're up there is the haziness of the place. It didn't feel polluted when we were walking but you'd notice the smog from the restaurant.

Aside from the bungee jumping, sky walk is also offered in this building. Both activities were way out of budget so we just looked at them. AHAHA!

Macau

Lisboa is really one of the more prominent building in this area.

From anywhere in Macau, you can ride a bus to get here if you're not coming from a casino where there's free service.
The routes you can choose from are 5, 5AX, 9A, 18, 18B, 23, 26, 32 and N2.

From here, we waited for a free shuttle bus that took us to Cotai Strip.

Bridge and Viewing Deck of Cloud 9 in Sumulong Hi-way, Antipolo.

I'm only showing you photos taken from the bridge and from the viewing deck. We weren't able to walk around the whole area. We just went here for the view actually and then there were a lot of couples on top (where the bridge leads) and so we decided to go down to the viewing deck after circling it once.

The entrance is P 50.00/person.

Not bad for the entire experience. I wasn't scared but this may be scary for some, if you ask me.

This is a good place to visit especially for people who likes taking photos/ looking for "intagrammable" places.

Just kinda disappointed whenever I see the development in this area. Would've been a lot better if the forests were more protected kaso 'yon nga, money is in the development.

I've always loved looking at Metro Manila Skyline whenever I'm in Sumulong Hi-way or on my way to Antipolo. The view never gets old. <3 It's always relaxing to view MM from here.
