@tastesseoulgood: A lot has changed in Korea since 2009. I initially moved to Seoul 17 years ago. Back then, Korea wasn't the hot spot it is now for tourism. People would often skip the country all together for fear of its Northern neighbor. After calling South Korea home for the better part of two decades, I have see many changes, both in the country and culture, as well as my own personal growth. In this series, we take a look back at some photos I have captured the first year of living here. For reference, these were all taken in 2009 - 2010, and were captured on my iPhone 3. They were all uploaded onto my personal SNS, where I have since downloaded them. Therefore, the quality isn't great. If you would like more of this, go back and see Part 1, and do let me know if you would like a Part 3 where we look at more changes South Korea has seen since my time living here! #southkorea #seoul #koreatravel #travel #thenandnow
