Hwanseon Cave (환선굴) or "Rave in a Cave"

As part of our two-day excursion to Korea's east coast in Gangwon Province, we visited Hwanseon Cave - the largest limestone cave in Korea and one of the biggest in Asia at 8km in length. It was flippin sweet. Caves are my all-time favorite naturally occurring Earth formation and this was one of the coolest I've ever seen...

Samcheok Beach (삼척시)

This place was deserted in mid-May, but come summer, its going to be swarming with people. I honestly didn't think I would see such beautiful water in Korea, but there ya go.

East Coast Adventure

This past weekend I went to the East coast of Korea (which is the Pacific for those of you who may not be so geographically-inclined), specifically the quiet city of Samcheok. While the travel gods were not with us this time, Josh, Zak, Helen and I had an amazing time - the weather was perfect and we got to see a less traditional (if you will) side of Korea.

This is my new friend/travel guide/discount coupon: Josh :)
