Somewhere in Johannesburg, South Africa

May 19, 2013 I do not recall exactly where this is. An image search suggests it is Montecasino. There was a casino and a hotel, and I ate there once or twice. The owner of my accommodation had been robbed at this very place, which made me realize that the security was poor. 2013년 5월…

A Visit to the Zoo in Johannesburg, South Africa – 2

A trip to the southern coast during Chuseok 2014 – 3

A trip to the southern coast during Chuseok 2014 – 2

Next, I visited Hyangiram Hermitage in Yeosu and Daraengi Village in Namhae. They were not spectacular sights, but they were reasonably worth seeing. I did not take many photos. 다음으로 여수의 향일암과 남해의 다랭이 마을을 방문했습니다. 대단한 구경거리는 아니었지만 적당히 볼 만했습니다. 사진은 많이 찍지 않았습니다.
