Boseong

 The weekend before last, I made an impromptu day trip to Boseong to see the green tea fields. I went during a holiday, so it was pretty busy with foreigners and Koreans alike. It was quite beautiful, however, I still think my favorite part was watching all of the Korean couples taking (thousands of) pictures of each other (many of them wearing matching outfits) running through the fields and posing with leaves by their faces or eating ice cream or looking out or or or....

Boseong is about an hour and a half bus ride from Gwangju. There, you can walk around the green tea fields, eat pork with green tea leaves, stroll through the surrounding hills, and eat green tea ice cream.
