Cherry blossoms are here

Enjoying the warm spring of South-Korea.








Walking through the campus to see all the cherry blossoms.









Haeundae New Town looking good with all the cherry trees!

Rush hour can't stop me from standing here and enjoying the view!







Beautiful view in Bansong near our university.


Oh I miss seeing YSU-buses!

Actually I miss seeing the teachers too, and especially the kids that come to this place to use their rollerskates and fall down... That's entertainment.






Near Jangsan metro-station.

Everything is covered with cherry blossoms around this place, too.
And our dear Kraze Burgers on the background, haha!













Most of the trees on top of Dalmaji hill and along the Moontan road (known for cherry blossoms) weren't blossoming so much yet, but we found few trees full of flowers!

It's beautiful, right?











Now it feels like summer! 

Flowers everywhere, warm sun, and taking a walk in a very beautiful place. 

Life couldn't get better.









In a park at Dongbaek island. 

This path through the park gave me so much dear memories, I have spent many wonderful days and nights right here in this park, along this small road. 








This road... Well, I have had to use it, it only leads to a tennis-court and college where I sometimes went, just for fun. 

It's a beautiful place to photograph, as you see. 














Sometimes the best photos are taken by accident. 

I'm allergic to bees, that's why I don't want to hang around them, BUT they are awesome models. 

This one scared me though. 







Taking a walk in the forest during late evening. 

These flowers are basically everywhere during the spring. The whole forest was violet, and thank you Mother Nature, yes that is my favourite colour. 


So beautiful.








Please treasure these trees like they are expensive, because I want to see these flowers every single spring :) 

One of the most beautiful trees I have ever seen. 








Some narcissus-flowers for you to admire :) 

These always remind me of my birthday (in May), because when I was a child and lived in Finland, these flowers were always blooming during my birthday. 









When I was a child, I used to love roses, too. 

These little roses are extremely beautiful, my favourites. Though white roses would be even more pretty. 




Little doggies!

There is many stores that sell these cute puppies... And I just want to buy each and every one of them!










Beautiful sunset seen from Dongbaek island, view to Marina city and Gwangan bridge.







Beautiful moon. 

  The moon looks so different in Korea and in Finland, because you can see the different side of it.







Some cherry blossoms

Againts the bright blue sky they are so pretty, I like the contrast between pink and blue :)















Eating at Ashley again. 

 And as you see, I am eating pumpkin soup. Always pumpkin soup.









Looks at this beautiful food! You are free to feel jealous now :D












I'm getting very hungry when I'm watching all this food... 

But then I think about how it feels to eat all this and almost die just because you are so full. 


Oh my, good memories.





Some dessert.

Korean waffles are awesomely good, and the peanut-sauce is so tasty.

Oh now I'm getting extremely hungry already!











Full moon and cherry blossoms.

These pictures were taken in the small park in front of Youngsan university during a lovely night of full moon.

Korea werewolves are getting excited.








Walking around the campus. 



More cherry trees in blossom, and some ahjummas having a late evening walk.











Beautiful <3


Full moon over the mountains.








The famous elephant of our school, next to hotel management department.








Going home.

This street feels awesomely familiar, and makes me want to move back to this place.

But ok, whole Busan is my home. I can always visit Bansong :)










Watching the moon rise over Dalmaji hill.


Here's a video, too. 
Watch in HD and enjoy the moon!




Seeing something like this is breathtaking.



Here's another video. 
It's beautiful <3







Taking a walk at Dongbaek island during a very foggy evening.

The lights of Marine city are shining bright on the background, it's quiet and relaxing, the air is perfect and it's warm...











Here is one of my favourite places to take a walk during evenings.

Dongbaek island provies a view to Marine city, Haeundae beach, Dalmaji hill, Gwangwan bridge...

It's a place full on magic and full on memories.








After seeing these beautiful places, you don't settle for less.
I'm officially in love with these places and these sceneries + Korean spring. I want to live here in the middle of this beauty!

Late night adventures

Do you want to take a walk with me again?

I'll take you with me, towards new adventures.












"Under the Moon"-hotel at Dalmaji hill. 

Also one of the places where I would love to visit, because it looks so romantic, beautiful, traditional... and really expensive.

I like hanging out around this area, there are many hotels, restaurants and cafés, that make me smile just by being beautiful.











Good place for an evening walk: a children's park. 

Don't worry, I never went there to actually play with the children.

Ok ok, once...







A restaurant that looks like a small cottage on the other side. This side is just so beautiful, and if you look closely, you'll see a wonderful view to Gwangan bridge.





Here you can see some European building style with an Asian finishing touch!

If I would be reeeeally rich, and I would build a huge mansion or castle, I would like to build something like this :D

Yeah, I'm being very realistic again.













Opera? 

Whatever the name is, but this place is pretty awesome.

Such a beautiful house.











Paradise hotel. 

People who stay at Paradise hotel, can swim in a pool on top of the building and have a gorgeous sea-view from there. Nice!












And what is this building?

This is a bathroom at Haeundae beach :D








Haeundae beach late at night.






And the next morning. 

Nobody is here! I can sit here all alone and enjoy a warm spring-day in peace.












It's getting late and the visibility is awesome today! Here we can see Oryukdo islets so clearly. 
















It's going to be a beautiful, clear night. 













Beautiful is the right guess. 

The sunset is just awesome.









Haeundae beach after sunset.






















What a beautiful night!






























I love the nights when I can see clouds on the sky clearly, when they reflect the lights of the city.

This kind of nights are also great because the sunset is so much more beautiful when the clouds are pink and everything looks like straight from some fancy fairytale.


















This place looks a little spooky... 













Do I need to explain why I want to go through the trouble and climb here to enjoy the night?






























I'm on my way back to from Haeundae beach to Songjeong beach.

Yes, in the middle of the night...










This is the scary bridge again.

It doesn't look like I'm very far away from the ground in the picture, but this bridge is still a bit... Made for people who don't appreciate handrails.









Walking in a dark forest. In the middle of the night. It feels crazy but it's also very therapeutic!


I can see Songjeong beach from here, but I still have to walk a long way. 











And here is the beach. Looks like it's already so close, but unfortunately it's not.

But this view is absolutely beautiful.










Guess where I went?

This is the small hill near Songjeong beach, where I have spent many good days and many good evenings.

This time it was a warm late evening, and I was almost alone.

Ok, ahjummas everywhere. I met a really cute older couple who were walking around with a pink heart-blanket :D









If you could jump inside this picture, you would hear some awesome waves crashing over the rocks, some warm wind... And some ahjummas.

But hey, look at this place. It's gorgeous. I wanna live closeby in the future too, so that can visit often.








What about blooming flowers then?
It's spring, there should be more flowers.

Oh yes, Busan has lots of those!










Here are the flowers, as I promised.

I don't know what are these. Tell me if you know! I usually recognize plants, trees and flowers well, but this one I don't actally know.

But there trees are everywhere in Korea! And they are so beautiful with huge white flowers that smell really good.












Do you recognize this place? 

 I climbed to my favourite place, which is the perfect spot for watching the sunset and taking awesome pictures.











And here is the sunset.

My life could be worse, right?















Like I said earlier,  I love watching a sunset when the sky is a bit cloudy. And these cloud are just perfect!

Looks how the clouds first get orange, then a little pink pink, then red, last dark violet...

 *Speechless* 













Can you explain why I feel so happy when I'm watching these pictures?















This is one of the most perfect moments that you can imagine. Flowers spread a sweet scent in the air, you can see the waves crashing towards the rocks of the beach, you can feel the last rays of the sun... And you can see, feel and experience all the dreams running through your head.











This is so amazingly beautiful. I can't even think about living without these sweet memories now, and some people who have lived in Busan all their lives, have never even visited this place... Nevertheless seen a sunset from up here.












Last moments of sunshine. These moments always take my breath away, and looking at it from this amazing place, it almost feels like the world is really full of magic for a little while.










There is the sun, sinking lower and lower. Time almost stops when we hold our breaths imagining how flaming red the sky is going to be after the sun is completely down.













Again needless to say how great it feels to be watching this view. The sun is sinking behind the buildings so fast, yet if looks like a slow-motion, like everything has almost stopped for a while.














I bet that this is what we live for. This is also why Dalmaji hill was created, because it can give us this amazing feeling when you have just experiences an awesomely beautiful sunset, and now you're looking at the city and waiting for the lights to get brighter and brighter in the night.

These moments make me want to stop and re-think about my life. What is really important? What great things did I do in my earlier life to deserve to live in a place like this?













The contrast here is so great: these old-style houses that could be located near the fields of countryside in Scotland... And then the tall buildings of Marine city that could only be found in really modern cities in Asia!














And there it is.
A gorgeous sunset over the Marine city of Haeundae, and as a nice finishing touch, the bright moon.


This is truly beautiful <3











I was trying to take good pictures here, not to mention videos, but everytime when I press "play", there is an ahjumma behind me, shouting something about the wind being cold or then the moon looking beautiful. Either or.












And here's the bright moon a little bit later. A perfect blue moment has covered the scenery.

In this pictures it looks like everything has just stopped, the beach looks like a lonely, but at the same time really calm and relaxing place.







Did you like the photos and videos?

I will share more with you later. Coming soon!
