At Chuam Beach


A day at Chuam Beach!


Last week we went to Chuam beach with some friends from Samcheok. We picked the most beautiful day to go. The sun was shining and the air was warm and sweet.
There were men and women everywhere hanging the alien-esque cuttle fish on lines.




We went to go climb on the big rocks that are right up against the shore. It was tons of fun! But really the highlight of my day at the beach was finding the perfect sand dollar. I had already found some broken ones but then I was walking down the coast I spotted it! Here is the break down of my will and idiocy to get this sea treasure.

ooh! A sand dollar!

Let me just go right into the sea in my courderoys to snag this...

Just a little further...I'm wet already...I may as well just go for it...

SUCCESS!!!! It was totally worth it!


I was drenched. All I had to change into was a scarf (which I wrapped around my waist!) and a hoodie. Not ideal Korea wear! But I tell ya, sometimes you gotta just go for it, right?

That picture of the guy hanging up the fish was amazing.

Haha. And the video of Michael exercising and you waving was pretty mind-blowing too. Ohhhh man.
