Busan in Three Months

Dalmaji Hill

13 days left before we return to Singapore, and I’m already missing Busan!

I’ll especially miss the peacefulness of Haeundae, along with the pleasant strolls we’d take in the cool weather. 

Finally got round to walking the entire stretch of Dalmagi Hill, which is touted as the best place to view the moon. And we did it with a stroller.

Great for when hiking up the side of a mountain isn’t tiring enough for you.

 It was very nice, but just be aware that near the middle, you’d have to cross the road because for some insane reason, the smooth path stops, and gets replaced by dirt paths with flat stones. Not stroller-friendly. 

There’s several ways to go through, but we decided on the boardwalk for convenience. 
And if you decide to check it out, you’ll be greeted with incredible views.


There’s also a lot of cafes along  the way which makes it a fantastic place to take pictures for Instagram to make your friends jealous like the annoying hipster that they know and love. 

Even the public restrooms are nice.

Keep going and you’ll finally hit the bridge that was only recently completed. 


As we made our descent, the first drops of rain began to fall. 

Have you ever tried running down a mountain with a stroller in the cold of winter? IT’S FUN. TRY IT. 

Lungs burning and legs screaming, we arrived home just in time! 

Definitely worth it.

Morning Walk + Snow!!

Got up a little bit earlier today (OK fine I actually had to go to the bathroom and then couldn’t sleep afterwards) and went for a walk. A leisurely stroll, if you will. 

Here’s the thing though. Without a downpadded coat in minus two degrees Celsius, the ‘leisurely’ bit tends to get left behind. Too lazy to head back up, I kept going. 

Beautiful view while freezing my little kimchi off.

The cold has not yet lost its novelty for me. In fact, I’ll probably miss it (and not sweating like, everywhere all the damn time) once I’m back in Singapore. 

The moment I finished that last sentence, my brother-in-law came out of the room and told me “It’s snowing!”

I rushed back out like my life depended on it along with a stupid grin on my face. And I made it! It was the first time I ever stood outside while it snowed. 

It’s gearing up to be a really good day. I’m definitely going to miss this.
