Seasons of Korea!

Well, what a topic, right? No? Well, too bad.

As an individual from Hawaii, a place that only gets one tradition season all year (summer) and two unofficial season (rainy and dry), coming to a country like Korea was definitely an experience for me that I've been looking forward to my whole life.

Korea is home to 4 distinct season: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn. I have been here for the summer and fall seasons, and will be going into my first Korean winter, then spring soon. What can I say about the seasons here?

Summer

  • Holy Hot!
  • Boryeong Beach/Mud Festival was great
  • Time to take that trip to Busan/Jeju!
  • Shorts
Fall

  • Holy Colors!
  • The ideal temperature in my opinion
  • Sweaters
  • The trip to Kangwon Do/Jeunju
The first snowfall here in Asan fell on Thanksgiving Day in late November. Nowadays it seems to snow once a week. I know that winters here are pretty harsh, but I'll be running away to South East Asia for the break to get away from the cold!!!
