Wow, three weeks cycling in South Korea went by really quickly. I’ll try to give a bit of the best and worst that we found during this short visit.
It’s easy for me to succinctly summarize the highlights: the food and the generosity of the people. Local cyclists often approached us during breaks, offering small snacks, apples, coffee, energy bars. As I mentioned in my last post, a group of motorcyclists even invited us to join their bbq lunch one day. The most generous Korean we met turned out to be Mac who we met a couple days before arriving in Busan. When we tried to stop at a small shop that turned out to be closed, Mac guided us into the nearby village, found a small restaurant, and treated the three of us to tasty bowls of noodles.
