A short trip 6 days 5 nights in Jeju, South Korea. An unforgettable trip ever in my life.
Before approaching the day of travel, encountered an accommodation issue with Agoda and guesthouse, received an email from Agoda and guesthouse that my reservation has been cancelled due to card not been updated. I was so panic and went and called Agoda for assistance in this matter. Agoda was so great in assisted me, the call centre staff went and called the guesthouse and the guesthouse allowed me to reserve the room without updated the card and pay on the spot.
1st day of travel, as usual, I went to the airport early and did check-in. Throughout my 3 hours spent during waiting to board the flight, got to know a group of bike lovers from Penang. In the waiting process, I've a long conversation with one of the uncle and managed to clear some of the issues that have been kept in my heart for several years.
When reached to Jeju airport, I alone carried such medium-sized heavy luggage and took a cab to the guesthouse. While reached the guesthouse, the staffs were good in approached me, helped to carry my luggage to 3rd floor. The guesthouse's services were great, I got a free 1 can of drink in happy hours, breakfast and some leisure games in the guesthouse's living hall. My room is nice too with spacious space and room fragrance. And the guesthouse's location is good with many cafes and restaurants nearby, and 5 minutes walk to Jeju Intercity Bus Terminal, 18 minutes to Jeju city hall.
2nd day of my trip, I woke up early and took the bus to Seogwipo. From Jeju City to Seogwipo is an estimated 1hour and 30 minutes. journey. While reaching to the final location which is the Seongsanhang port, I nearly got lost but at the end managed to find the port. I went and bought the ferry tickets, and go to Udo Island, a small island located in the heart of Seogwipo.
In Udo Island, I've no any licenses holding and experience in cycling. I decided to spend around RM18 on the tour bus. On halfway of taking pictures of nice natural views, all of the sudden rain heavily. I went and find a place to hide. When the rain became smaller, I took the tour bus and go to the final destination. Too bad, the rain started rain so heavily. I went to the grocery shop and bought a raincoat, decided to walk. During my walk, I met one girl who also a solo traveller from
Malaysia. I make friend with her and we both decided to travel together under the rain and enjoyed the views.
My first time ran and walked under the heavy rain, first time enjoyed such a beautiful natural view under the rain.
