Autumn in South Korea is hands-down our most-awaited trip of the year. The girls and I have been raving about it for the longest time, even our office mates can't help but get excited for us. Even though it'll be my second time there, I feel just as giddy as I was the first time simply because it was love at first sight for me and SK. It's definitely one of those places you'll never get tired of going back to.
We were lucky enough to book tickets during one of
Cebu Pacific's crazy piso sale promos, so it's alright even if we ended up with red-eye flights. Not bad for Php 3,000+ yo! At least we get a breathtaking view of the city skyline during take-off and landing. Plus, we can easily sleep through the 4-hour flight. This trip was a year in the making and I spent grueling hours researching just to make the most out of our 6-day trip. All that effort was worth it though seeing them girls get excited by just looking at the itinerary and sample photos.

| Waiting for airport limousine bus #6002 |
We arrived at
Incheon International Airport
(IIA) around 6 AM. After exchanging a few dollars to wons at the nearest
Foreign Exchange booth for breakfast and transportation money, we bought/topped-up our
Seoul City Pass Plus cards which is basically
T-money with additional discounts for tourists.
Tip#1: Do not exchange all your travel money at the airport. Wait until you get to
Myeong-dong where you can find some of the best rates.
