1 Week until China!
I bought a new suitcase for £45.99 off amazon. I thought it was for the best to invest in a strong suitcase with the 8 flights I have this month. I haven't actually tested it out yet but the link can be found here. It has 4 wheels instead of 2 tho so manoeuvrability around the airports should make things easier.
I sent off various emails to re-confirm everything and I'm just waiting for 1 more back then that's everything confirmed in place. I printed off many of my e-tickets to present upon arrival to various activities in Asia. I have made a quick overview map below to show my planned route around Asia.
3 Countries in 16 days is going to be busy but should be fun. I am packing for about 11-12 days so plan to do washing/laundry in the Seoul hotel. On the hotel website it says they have coin operated laundry service so I will make the most of that. While I'm on the subject of Korea, I have unfortunately received an email to say that my full day DMZ & JSA tour has been cancelled. But thankfully I am still able to do the half day DMZ tour and will now have a few extra hours in the afternoon in the city of Seoul itself.
A quick breakdown of my time in each city can be found below.
I will be back with one more blog post before I go, thanks for reading!
