Day 8 of Blog Round 2 ✌🏼

That cafe culture tho! 

One of my favorite things in Korea is the overabundance of cafes. And it's not just a cofffee-lover heaven. Oh no, these cafes have all of kinds of smoothies, frappes, bingsu, teas, ades, bakery treats, sometimes sandwiches..., ALL OF THE THINGS. And it's so common to just chill in a cafe and study, which I also love. That means I have no reason to stay cooped up in my apartment, because there is a plethora of public spaces to occupy, even if I'm solo 

Also, one of my favorite things about Korean culture is going out for several "rounds." Like, usually you go out to eat and then your group will migrate to a 2nd place for drinks or dessert, then migrate to a 3rd place maybe for entertainment, then maybe for food again... Granted, there's a bit of this in the US, but it's not nearly as common. My favorite thing to say after eating with friends is "2차? 2차! 갑시다!" (Round 2? Round 2! Let's go!"). However, I'm pretty sure this concept of "rounds" is more for drinking and the intense drinking culture here. But I have definitely adopted it as my own and integrated it with my love for Korean cafes!

Cafe culture ❤ defintiely not the healthiest thing for me, but I sure love it!
