Back From a Soul Retreat from the Far East...

Just had to find time to write about the trip

i really almost didn't go for this trip...and from the beginning of the plan to go i was even already reluctant to go...there were thousands of reason why i shouldn't go....from changing working place to money and time constrain....and i wasn't really a fan of korean people....but under much persuasion and sponsorship!"thanks glams"!! i was on my way...

even on the day we were suppose to leave too i still had to work till night to settle things...and the dumbest thing was i didn't change money earlier so i had to change at the airport...packing was done in a jiff...from office to home and to the airport...!and finally boarded the plane!!...

the first thing when touching down at incheon airport then i realise that i really was in Korea....!!! it was like a dream...!

Ironically we had mcDonalds for our first meal in Korea!!!...but as usual language was the main issue when goin to a place that people seem to be very2 proud of their mother tongue...we touched down at 8am and the next flight was to Jeju Island...at 2pm... as usual we had plenty time to roam but decided not to that the risk ...so we took the train to Gimpo Airport... and stayed there for a few hours...we seem to be better at washing up in the airport now a days hehehe...

Jeju

We were met up by 2 pastors....Pastor Kwan and Pastor Lee.... ( Nice chaps..and funny too) and we began our ayam and itik ( chicken and duck talk) as both of them don't really speak English...thank God for internet...everytime they wanted to say something they used google translation hehehe...
it was fun playing the guessing game

 

hmm i seem to have no pictures with us and both our host....(shame on me)....we were somehow "dijaga" by our hosts.....they treated us like family...like a long lost family coming back home....

 

all i can say about jeju is :

 

It's a pretty and beautiful place to go to.....the scenery is awesome there...the weather was also awesome despite the rain and warning of thyphoon sanba....

 

 

 we also went to a trick art muzium which was fun....!!!

 after that we went to a choc muzium, Pastor Kwan's church member happens to be the owner of the place .. so we entered for free...( was really blessed by God's ways-Provision)




this was "DOG" (DUCK)...

the last nite we were there we were invited for homecell...and all i can remember the food was simple but marvelous!!... (disebabkan malu malu kucing terpaksa tahan diri dari balik2 ambil makanan)

the homecell..

whom everybody tot that i was a korean....

 

in jeju we stayed at the church...and i always was curious about sleeping style in korea...and finally had a chance to try it out....the floor had heater but only certain "range" not the whole floor...very practical for saving space...



 

 

during the last day..despite rainning everyday...the sun was bright...but nyeh it was our last day....

we were given breakfast by pastor kown and his wife...sanwiches..and it was yummy....

 

  UPDATE :31 January 2013..

 

 *this was written long long time ago....and i just tot off posting it...as you can see i wrote them in the hurry and if i read it again i just can't get wat i was trying to say....this was the first phase of our trip...and i hope i can write more about the trip which happened 5 months ago...(cerita pun lapok already)

 

but all and all this trip was one of the trip that change one's mindset...and really strengthen my faith..and change the way i see HIM...and reminded me that in this world there are still  human beings that are genuinely kind...all the kindness that i received during this are priceless and i won't be able to pay even half of it...

 

so far, i have decided to put all travelling plans on hold for a moment ( until i get my priority straight), but to tell you the thruth i really miss travelling and really miss being friends who i can laugh until it hurts...

As i wish i could always do things my way.it's really not...and as i face daily life feeling like a junkyard but which isn't really that bad....and as i try to enjoy life as it is when people don't understand how....and as i try to survive this life,and as i try to lift my head up high in the society that i am living in...i know that i am not alone..for God is with me during the loneliest time...

signing out as a person that :

Loves to eat

Loves to travel

Loves to have fun

and

Loves HIM.....
