"It is hard to believe it has already been two months since I returned to South Korea. That also means it has been two months of Picture of the Day. Just like I did last month, here is a gallery of this month's Pictures of the Day."

"Today's picture doesn't come from Asia at all. I snapped this picture in February, 2017, during my European travels."

A Julpo Layover

"This picture comes from one of my favorite experiences during my first year in South Korea."

Riding the rails and Korean public transit

"I have to give a great amount of credit to the Korean government because their public transit system phenomenal. I have only been living in Daejeon for a little more than six months, but thanks to South Korea's quick and convenient public transportation network I have already been able to visit Seoul and Busan numerous times each, as well as Cheonan, Daegu, Ulsan, and countless small towns on my way to Byeonsanbando National Park."

"When I first started pursuing a job teaching English abroad, I often found myself daydreaming about hitchhiking down country roads lined with rice paddies, hiking up and down rural mountains, jumping into remote pools fed by waterfalls, and lounging on a beach with a beer and friends from all around the world.

Destination: Seoul

"After spending a week in Seoul for my training, I have returned on two separate occasions, but I have only begun to scratch the surface of the capital of South Korea. Nonetheless, I have compiled a montage video and a brief travel guide from my limited time in Seoul."
