NAMHAE ISLAND – FISHING VILLAGES IN PARADISE.
The trip to Namhae Island started with an all night bus trip. We piled into the bus at around midnight and slept as best as we could through the night, heading south. Rest area stops every couple of hours were convenient. As the Chartered bus rolled into the dawn, we cruised across a smaller version […]
DEEP SEA FISHING AND PLANTING RICE IN DARANGEE VILLAGE
