A morning walk

Some views of Seoshin.


Hi! The morning walk through Seoshin takes me past a lot of fairly typical Korean scenery - here is a field planted with early spring rice, well on its way to filling some bowls.


This is a panoramic view of Seoshin, showing just how misty the early spring mornings are these days. The tilled field in the foreground will be planted with that other staple crop - chilies.



The 'main drag', otherwise also the road to Gyungpyeong Harbour from Seoshin. On the right is the golf course, and on the left is a vegetable garden.


An atypical Seoshin home - this one belongs to a fairly rich family who are able to devote some of their ground to a lawn and a flower garden rather than vegetables.


Here is one of the rice paddies that will be planted with autumn rice.

Walking through this little village, if you are a foreigner, is akin to being a celebrity. You are greeted with cries of 'songseanim', waved at, pointed at and generally made aware of your difference.

If you love centre stage, as I do, it's great.
