random images from Jan./Feb. 2010....


This winter has been cold and long, so I have found myself going out quite often, exploring different areas around Seoul, which means many weekend's and week nights in Seoul.
Below you'll find some random images of just that....


one late night, midweek, coming back from Seoul around 230am. I took the bus up to Gangnam to meet a friend then we went to Cheongnam, pose part of Seoul for some wine and dine. the time slipped away so i missed the last bus ride back to Bundang, luckily the taxi is not super expensive, almost to Jeongja and the meter is reading 17520W, that's about $15.21 at today's exchange rate. Just listening to my iPod when I looked up and had a saw that we were in a tunnel.......



another night heading up to Giuditta's for a small dinner and movie night with friends. I had aa enjoyable walk up the hill to her place from Hannam-dong. just barely caught the sunset through the city scape, construction, concrete living, and if you look closely or click on the image you can see the Mosque in the distance, and possible the 63rd building.



street food stand at Seohyeon station, a few subway stations away from my place. Not a busy night.



take your pic, some Indian/Middle Eastern shoes, noticed a stand as we walked out of the Uzbek Restaurant in Itaewon.



Little Uzbek.



Some Uzbek stuffed cabbage rolls.....tasty!



Uzbekistan flag, had no idea what it looked like before tonight ;)



Italian salami at Luca's Italian Kitchen.



and a Negroni



Well stacked crates in front of a small local market in Chungmuro, part of Seoul that has a great camera district.



outside BBQ....while walking around Chungmuro...



Small street in Chungmuro, a lot of action on this street. It's great to wander around new parts of Seoul and see what captures the eye



A good friend of mine Izzy, (Korean name Ji hyun) who is studying in Ohio, recently had her mom deliver some chocolates from the US. paired well with my Alfonso Bialetti espresso :)



Street food near Namdaemun....



One of the many meat markets around S.Korea.....it's nice to see the meat hanging in the winter time cold temps, but in the hot sticky summer temps, makes you think twice....



the frozen fish truck's chopping block! walking out of my academy one evening, on the corner, selling fish from the East Sea.....or maybe the West (Yellow) Sea...



Checking out Marco's studio in Seoul one evening. the #1 Italian Architectural firm in S.Korea....MOTOElastico !



random space..



some art project they had displayed....Korean Police riot shields....


a view from Marco's office. A part of Seoul at night over looking the Cheonggye stream.

That's it for now...come back soon! more to catch up on......

Annyeong-hi gaseyo!
