So yesterday I took the KTX from Seoul to Daegu which reaches a top speed of 300 km per hour shooting through the Korean country side. Let me tell you something right now: Korea is really mountainous. It made me miss my mountain bike. Luckily Chris actually has a pretty nice bike that he said that he would let me ride if I wanted. Yeah!
So from what little I saw Seoul is a bit more polished than Daegu. Daegu has some trash in the streets while even the back alleys of central Seoul seemed to be spotless. Also there is a bit of a difference in how people dress. The teachers from Daegu complained that a lot of the times the Koreans were stuck in the 80's and that the women in Seoul showed quite a bit more skin.
Alright I'm heading out to a Buddhist temple today and I may spend the night out there. We'll see how it goes.
