My first Koreans! Nice guys sat next to us at the night market so while sampling the local street food and my first taste of Soju, the Korean national drink, which is a hideously strong spirit drunk straight with dinner we chatted to them and they insisted I hadf a picture with the first koreans I'd spoken to.

Seoul the capital of South Korea! AB came and met me at the airport and we headed into town to check in and grab some food at the local night market, the oldest in Korea.

Me with my hire bike cycling down the river from the forbidden city back to my hostel in Beijing to jump on a plane to South Korea!

Me chilling out in front of the forbidden city.

The longest corridor in the world, from memory it was a couple of miles long, which everyone could walk along except for when they were blocked by tourists taking pictures of themselves...

The forbidden city! We cycled about 10k to get there and then went round with an audio guide telling us all about these really impressive buildings and heres me in front of the drum tower.

Back on the blog after 2 months! so back in Beijing the morning after the great wall and me and my american friend hired bikes and braved the roads of Beijing to head to the forbidden city - stopping on route to join in the back of this tai chi class which happens in every single park across china just a shame we didn't have the white suits as well!
