09:21

little bit more about the history plus T

09:24

looks really cute in this outfit you

09:26

look really cute she's a

09:30

I think the craziest thing for me still

09:31

is that we are in South Korea like this

09:34

is just the coolest thing ever and just

09:36

such a dream like I'm forever grateful

09:38

that we have the opportunity to be here

09:40

as a family like wow we're just standing

09:42

here as a family in South Korea I'm just

09:44

so

09:46

[Music]

09:50

grateful what is

09:53

that oh yeah we just stopped at a cafe

09:56

apparently the like soul is known for

09:58

cafes so we're going to try a bunch of

10:00

the pastries and then we're going to get

10:01

some lunch is that

10:03

yummy she loves it here so far there's

10:06

only one thing that I found that I don't

10:07

like about South Korea and it is the

10:10

size of their water glasses this is aot

10:13

this is this is a shot glass it's a

10:16

sip I got to refill it like 15 times to

10:20

keep

10:22

[Music]

10:36

four sips of

10:41

water the biggest perk of Korea that

10:44

I've learned so far is you could

10:45

literally leave anything at any time and

10:47

no one will steal it we just left our

10:48

stroller fully stocked out here and I

10:51

felt very comfortable about doing it

10:52

because I've read that like basically

10:54

it's very safe to leave things no one

10:55

steals here so it's still here another

10:58

Pro tip for we're traveling we do not

11:00

travel with a stroller but if we need a

11:03

stroller in a location we will rent one

11:05

so we rented this one and it was like $4

11:08

a day we're walking up right now to Buck

11:10

Chon village and we're going to an area

11:12

where there still is the traditional

11:15

houses and it's pretty cool because on

11:17

the map it says that when you enter into

11:19

this area you got to be quiet because

11:21

people still live there and they

11:23

actually have visiting hours for people

11:25

to come in and visit and luckily we're

11:26

here during those visiting hours so

11:28

we're going to go check it out right now

11:29

we're going uphill and I'm pushing a

11:31

stroller I'm carrying a

11:38

baby this is epic so this is the street

11:41

that people still live on they're like

11:43

old old

11:45

houses and it looks so cool I feel like

11:48

11:50

see in movies but it's here in real life

11:52
