Mudfest

18 07 2008

Ok, so this is a bit of a delayed post but last weekend I went to mudfest. We had a group of 29 Dongtan people and we all went up together on the train and got a bunch of hotel rooms. For those who don`t know mudfest is this big annual festival in Boryeong, on the west coast of Korea. It`s apparently the biggest festival in Korea and for some reason it has become the biggest foreigner party as well. It was strange being completely surrounded by foreigners for two days. It was so much fun though.

We spent two days just lying on the beach and getting muddy. The mud is supposed to be great for your skin too. We had great weather too, it only rained late on Saturday night, which was kind of unfortunate because it ruined my plan to crash on the beach but oh well. On Sunday afternoon a bunch of us went to the sauna too, which was just the perfect way to end off the weekend. The sauna is so relaxing, I think I may be getting a little addicted.

This weekend is my birthday so I’m having a little party and then next weekend I’m off to Thailand. I can’t wait, an entire week of lying on the beach!!! We’ve decided to spend 2 days in Bangkok and the rest of the week on Ko Phi Phi, an island near Phuket. From the pictures I’ve seen it looks stunning,
