2 Canadians in Korea

Welcome to our blog. It's designed to give people back home an idea of what it's like living in South Korea and to allow you to follow us on our journey.

I've been blogging a lot of facts and I feel I should say that some of it is copy pasted from books, the internet and the signs that I took pictures of at the tourist site itself.

We Finally Made It To The Top!

After three attempts to make it to the top of Daeam mountain, we finally made it! We realized why we couldn't make it the first few times, we were carrying to much weight, so the third time up we didn't bring the camera. The problem was once we made it to the top we realized that we had no proof to show that we were there. So, naturally we had to do it again.

We have since been up to the top 4 times and have managed to drag along other foreigners with us and we created an unofficial mountain climbing club of 6. We go up every Sunday. It takes us approx. 1:45 hours to make it to the top and approx. 30 mins to get back down but we feel the burn for 1 to 2 days.

The hike continues around the mountain tops for about 9 km's and if you want you could somewhat make your way around Changwon City on mountain tops. We would like to do this with 1 overnight camping experience but we haven't decided if we will or not. If you are wondering about the wildlife, we have only seen a few birds during our hikes.

The Mountain again

This explains our journeys up the mountain. I might not be drawing the lines properly and where the stops are exactly but it's gotta be close. This picture is taken from our apartment window on the 12th floor of our building. Click on the picture to enlarge.

Higher up the Mountain

This is just a nice picture from our hike today. We went 0.6 KM up the mountain the first time and this time we went 1.5 KM up the mountain and this is our picture from the hike. The trail kept going for another 0.8 KM however we were too tired but we plan on doing it sometime.
