An opportunity to return to Seoul revealed itself as part of a business trip. Not as many pictures as I would have liked, but it was better than nothing.
Stayed in Pangyo for the business part, the silicon valley of Seoul.

Montreal is like a poor man's Paris, especially in black and white.
I love overpasses, especially when the light is harsh outside
I lived in Toronto for most of my life, yet I never had the chance to venture north to Montreal. Considered by some to be the center for gastronomy in Canada over Toronto, I'm surprised it took me this long. I didn't have a lot of time, and I'm horribly out of practice so this is me limping back into photography.
Everything looks fancier in French.

Looks like I can't escape Seattle
Pink spokes, matching grips. Tight.
This photo would have been cool if that guy didn't walk into frame. Oh well.
I went to Hawaii....again.
It was a long time ago and I'm just getting to it, but what else is new. I didn't take many photos this time around, so there were slim pickings. Please excuse the digression in quality.
Chilled
Ate stuff
Thanks Valve
Hiking in Portland is apparently the thing to do. I hadn't shot with my ai-s for awhile, so please excuse the shoddy focus
Had the chance to day trip Portland. Here's what I found
On the way to a lookout
The view
I wouldn't mind living in this super hero fortress
As you can tell by now, I didn't get a whole lot accomplished in Seoul photo wise. Family stuff can do that to you. All the more reason to come back though.
The quintessential Seoul portrait
"Does this make me look fat?"
In the odd chance that I ever get a whiskey bar up and running it helps to see how others are doing it. While I still feel that Japan still does the particular type of bar I enjoy best, Seoul is getting close. The Bing soo is there because I love bing soo. Notable mentions include the following: Vault 82, B28 Seoul, and The Factory
