My Korean Trip

In summer vacation I went to Korea for a week. It’s from 4 September to 11 September. I thought that the days which I set are cheaper than August. Then, I had a very good time. It was wonderful time.

The reason I wanted to go Korea was because of my mother. She is Korean so when I child, I went to Korea many times but I haven’t gone to Korea for ten years so I decided to go to Korea by myself.

After I decided that, at first, I worked hard and saved money. Finally, I had 130 thousand yen. There was enough money to go to Korea. Next, I studied Korean. I can speak Korean but it’s not good enough to tell my feelings to a native perfectly. I wanted to speak Korean better so I spoke to my mother in Korean as much as possible at home and watched Korean movies and listing to Korean music.

Thanks to these efforts, I really enjoyed the trip. I was grateful that I could see many places and was able to have good conversation with many people. I went to Seoul and Jeju island, shopping, sea, kangwong land and so on with my uncle and relatives. We talked about a lot of things in Korean. For example, about our families and differences between Japan and Korea. I said that two countries are similar. Of course, there are small cultural difference but they have many good cultures. Therefore they had better understand each other and share their cultures. I think that I had very nice experience. And I could have a dream to go to many foreign countries. To realize it I want to study English and Korean. And I want to experience more wonderful trip.
