The adventures of Cam

Hello and welcome to a world where funny, crazy and unexpected things happen... after a hard year getting my Masters Degree and having a crazy Summer in London, I decided to go and work for the South Korean government on several teaching projects (Comm Design & English) for a private design middle school
and design university... my new adventure has begun!

Pancakes in Gangnam and a drinking in Hongdae

So i finally found one of 2 pancake outlets in Seoul....its called Butterfingers and if you haven't heard of it, its an american breakfast bar/cafe with everything related to pancakes, waffles, french toast etc and its open until 3am...everyday! It is not cheap but im addicted to their Banana pancakes so i just dont care anymore.


But just in case any of you readers are wanting to experience this joyful place its in Gangnam: leave Gangnam station (exit 6), walk straight ahead for about 30seconds, take your 1st left and just keep walking...within 2mins you will see it on your left.
Sindorim Station

I met up with Gabriella (a really sweet girl from New York) on a Saturday and went to a place that place id like to keep secret for now, but its a posh café neatly placed in the corner of a korean corporate building. After tea and chocolates we went to get dinner in Insadong and to Hongdae for drinks after drinking a little too much we went to the park, where creatives usually hang out on a Saturday night and we danced to this korean band to a happy audience (yes we were drunk!)
Gaby's favorite dumplin restaurant

Keeping ourselves happy in the cold

On the way to Hongdae we randomly met a guy on the subway (Braidy) who decided he wanted to be our friend, so the following Saturday me, Gaby & Megan met him for dinner and drinks, but i decided to have a long night after they decided to go home early....
We like chicken!

The evil look

Happy people

I love the fact that there is a tree in the middle of them room

....so i met up with my boy Andre, had more drinks...went to this hip hop club Saab.




.....ran up a tab of 300,000 and ended up chilling at at my favorite cafe in Hongdae until the subways started running again at 5am (this cafe is quite funny because they just allow people to come in and sleep after clubbing -but its very civilized).
