3 times visiting here, our regular friend! (Travelers Planet Hostel Guesthouse, Hongdae, Souel, Korea)

Thomas is our regular guest visiting TP 3 times already, and finally, he got his own TP bottle! :) 

I have already met him on January this year, and we enjoyed the meal together at 4th floor of TP hahaha (Actually he didn't like Jjolmyeon, spicy and cold noodles I ate that time) 

He can speak 5 languages, Spanish, Japanese, Russian, English, and a little Korea, even though he is very young, maybe cause he wants to be English teacher in somewhere in the world and someday work in embassy. That is why he visits Asia frequently, and TP as well. 

I was great to meet him again!

Hard to breathe?! Plant trees!(Travelers Planet Guesthouse, Hongdae, Seoul, Korea)

Yesterday was Fools day. Did you lie a lot?

Lying is done guys. Tree planting day is coming.

What tree-planting day is? As time goes, a lot of forest of Korea has been gone.

Same as world's going through.

In 1960, Korea government enacted tree-planting day every April 5th.

Many associations go here and there then plant little trees.

You can be a volunteer as well.

One 50 years old well grown up tree can make an effect same as one hundred forty million KRW !!

How about earning one hundred forty million KRW on coming Sunday?

Warm sunshine and fresh air are bonus.

Joomak Boribop?(Travelers Planet Hostel Guesthouse, Hongdae, Seoul, Korea)

Hey guys,

Did you have lunch or dinner somewhere?

I will recommend you a ‪#‎Korean‬ ‪#‎restaurant‬ near ‪#‎Studio_41st‬ .

Lots of guest ask us where a nice restaurant is around the ‪#‎guesthouse‬ .

There are a lot of restaurants. But not many restaurants so ‪#‎traditional‬ or is generally chosen by most guest. Guests are from everywhere in the world. Tastes are different every each person.

That's why we have to‪#‎recommend‬ a restaurant which is very popular for international people.

‪#‎Joomak_Boribop‬ is frequently recommended. ‪#‎Boribop‬ means barley rice. Set menu with barley rice is their signature menu.

There are also a lot of nice dishes. ‪#‎Stir_fried_spicy_pork‬ ,‪#‎Noodles_with_spicy_fish_stew‬ and so on. And you should order‪#‎Makgeolli‬ or ‪#‎Dongdongju‬ which are Korean traditional drinks.

How about Joomak Boribop for tomorrow dinner?
