대안공간 눈 & 행궁동 벽화마을

왠지 수원에서 미술관을 찾기 어려워요. 지동 벽화마을에 간 다음에 행궁동 벽화마을에 있는 대안공간 눈(Alternative Space Noon) 전시관을 잠깐 방문했어요. 예쁘게 꾸며진 건물에서 작은 전시실 4개 있어서 크지 않아도 다양한 미술 스타일을 한 번에 볼 수 있어요.

For some reason it’s hard to find art exhibitions in Suwon. So, after going to Jidong Mural Village(지동 벽화마을) we stopped in at this small gallery in Haenggung-dong Mural Village, Alternative Space Noon(대안공간 눈). The building is painted beautifully with its own murals and inside there are 4 small exhibition rooms, so although it’s not large it does display a variety of different collections.

First trip to 전라도,

First bamboo forest, First time meeting the parents

작년 4월에 처음으로 경기도 밖으로 나갔어요. 남자친구 부모님을  만나는 것도 처음이었어요. 광주에 가는 건 처음이라 뭐 할까 고민하다가 가까운 죽녹원(담양 대나무숲)으로 갔어요. 

엄청 더운 날이라서, 숲에 들어가 그늘에서 시원하게 산책하자고 했어요. 하지만 그렇지 않았어요. 딱 도착해서 뭔가 깨달았어요. 여기… 산인가? 여기 산이네. 더워 죽을 것 같았지만 결국 출발했어요.

Last May I travelled outside of Gyeonggido for the first time, and met my boyfriend’s parents. It was our first time in Gwangju so we didn’t really know what to do. In the end we decided to go the bamboo forest close by in Damyang(담양 죽녹원).

It was a scorching hot day, so we thought it would be nice to talk a walk in the cool shade of the forest. Alas that is not what we did. We realised it as soon as we arrived: Is this…. a mountain? It’s a mountain. The weather was so hot it felt like death, but we started off on our walk.

보성 녹차밭 (어린이날 주말 / Children’s day weekend 2/2)

On Saturday we rented a car and drove from Gwangju(광주) to Boseong(보성) to visit the green tea fields(녹차밭) and Yulpo beach(율포해숙장). We got stuck in traffic, again, leaving Gwangju(광주) and had to squeeze our plans for the day into a much shorter time than expected, but as soon as we got on the road to Boseong the way was really clear and the surroundings beautiful. That drive through the mountains was the most healing part of our weekend and has pretty much prepared me for anything that comes my way this month. The Korean countryside is undeniably beautiful, and whether it be by car, bus, or train, looking out the window on a long drive here has become one of my favourite things since the day I arrived on the plane and made the journey from the airport to my home in Suwon.

토요일에는 렌트카 를 빌려서 보성녹차밭에 가러 광주에서 출발했어요. 또 광주 안에서 차가 막혀서 늦게 도착했지만 보성에 가는 길은 차가 별로 없고 경관이 너무 아름다웠어요. 그 산 속을 지나면서 드라이브를 하는 것이 여행 중에서 제일 힐링되는 시간이였고, 그 시간을 통해 이제 이번달에 해야할 일을 다 하자는 마음을 먹을수 있었어요. 한국의 지방이 정말 아름다워요. 한국에 처음와서 비행기에서 내리고 인천 공항부터 수원 집까지 버스 타고 갔을 때부터 버스든지 기차든지 차든지 한국에서 이동하면서 창문 밖으로 한국의 지방을 구경하는 것이 저에게는 최고예요.

“Let this be a night you also think of me”

At first sight I knew you were all right
The second time I knew you were good
The third time I knew you were mine

There’s nothing else to say

I just like you
I just want to be with you

I don’t think I can be without you

I love you

전주 한옥마을 (어린이날 주말 / Children’s Day weekend ½)

‘Golden week’ was a blessing. After a stressful time with work and school and an even busier month up ahead (this is my final and most difficult month of uni), having a few days off to travel gave me some much need refreshment.

On Friday we caught the bus to Jeonju(전주) to visit the Hanok Village there (you’re probably bored of posts about hanok villages, right? I promise this is the last one!). Lots of people recommend Jeonju as a good place to visit so I’ve been wanting to go for a long time and it really was a beautiful place.

황금연휴는 축복이였습니다. 요즘 바빠서 스트레스도 받고, 이번달이 졸업이라서 대학교 다닐 때중 가장 바쁜 달이에요. 그래서 몇일 쉬고 여행 간 것이 너무 좋았어요.

금요일에는 버스를 타고 전주한옥마을에 갔어요. (이제 한옥마을에 대한 포스트는 지루하겠죠.. 이것은 마지막입니다^^). 전주한옥마을 여행을 추천하는 친구들이 많아서 오랫동안 가고 싶었는데 그말대로 아주 멋진 곳이였어요.
