Have fun in Korea : Surfing 2nd (동해 서핑)

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Hi Steemit Friends!

Today, I want to tell you about my 2nd surfing story. If you remember that I've been surfing in the last month. That was my first time for surfing. It was little bit hard but fun! Thus, I go to surfing again in last weekends. Of cause, it was fun. I think it get used to stand on the board. Well I am not that good at it right now, but getting better I think. This time I went to surfing to East Sea of Korea. Last month I went to East Sea for surfing, but different area. That was Yangyang-si, this time was Donghae-si.

안녕하세요 여러분!

오늘은 제 두번째 서핑 이야기를 가져왔어요. 지난 달 다녀왔는데 이번달 되자마자 또 다녀오게 되었네요. 지난 주말에 다녀왔는데 역시 재미있더라고요. 슬슬 서핑보드 위에도 곧잘 서기 시작했어요. 그렇게 잘 타진 않지만 점점 나아지고 있죠. 이번에는 동해로 갔다 왔는데요. 지난번은 양양시. 이번에는 동해시예요. 같은 동해이긴 하지만 또 다른 느낌!

I didn't know that there are many surfing shops in Korea. Many young people go there and enjoy surfing, plus hang out with new friends who meet there. That was fun experience for both making new friends and enjoying surfing. Most surfing shops have cool interior and free atmosphere. I like that. It makes me feel that I am in vacation really. Cool music also comes from a speaker that the shop have. People can take a rest while they don't do surfing. They can drink bear or coffee, because surfing shop sell bear and coffee.

저는 한국에 이렇게 서핑샵들이 많은 줄 몰랐었어요. 많은 청춘들이 모여서 서핑을 즐기고 새로운 사람들을 사귀죠. 저는 그 두개의 경험 모두 좋았어요. 서핑샵들은 멋진 인테리어와 자유로운 분위기가 생명인 것 같아요. 저는 금새 그 분위기가 좋아졌죠. 그리고 멋진 음악도 나오는데요. 제가 진정 휴가구나 싶게 느끼게 하더라고요. 사람들은 서핑을 하지 않을 때 맥주나 커피를 마시면서 쉰답니다. 그럴 수 있는 공간이거든요.

I arrive there around 2 p.m. My surfing group lesson was 3 p.m. Thus, I took a rest because it was 4 hours to get here by express bus from Seoul. I lay down on the hammock and feel the cool wind from the sea. I could smell the sea.

저는 오후 2시에 도착했는데 제가 예약한 레슨 시간은 오후 3시였어요. 서울에서 고속버스로 4시간을 걸려 왔기 때문에 좀 휴식을 취했죠. 해먹이 있길래 누워있는데 시원한 바람과 함께 바닷냄새를 맡을 수 있었어요.

The surfing lesson was ok. Because it was 2nd time for me, I could understand what the teacher said easily. Actually when I went to there, Korea rainy season(these days are Korean rainy season), but I was lucky that the rain stop when I start to go surfing. However, there was't big wave. The teacher told me that Korean wave season for East Sea is fall and winter. Well, but I could practice how to paddle and whenever I got tired, I just lay down on the surfing board and enjoy the sea wind. That made me feel happy. Anyways, I hope I can meet good wave on the next surfing time.

서핑수업은 괜찮았어요. 두번째 수업이다 보니 이해가 빨랐죠. 하지만 지금이 장마시즌이라서 제가 갔을 때 비가 내리는 시점이었어요. 하지만 운이 좋게도 서핑수업을 할 땐 비가 안왔죠. 그래도 파도가 별로 없었다는 것은 아쉬웠어요. 강사님이 파도가 좋을 땐 가을이나 겨울이라고 하더라고요. 어쨌든 패들연습을 할 수 있어서 좋았어요. 그리고 지치면 그냥 서핑보드에 엎드려서 바닷바람을 쐬었는데 기분이 좋더라고요. 그래도 다음번에는 좋은 파도를 만났으면 싶긴 해요.

After surfing, I participated in BBQ party. The surfing shop that I went have guest house, thus people can sleep and enjoy surfing easily. In addition, the shop open BBQ party every night. BBQ and liquor all you can eat! It cost only 20,000 KRW and you can hangout with new friends. I enjoyed it. Surfing is attractive to me and the BBQ party is optional fun. If you like party, you shouldn't miss it!

I hope you like my 2nd surfing story. If you like my story, please follow me. Thank you!!

서핑이 끝난 후에는 바베큐파티에 참석을 했는데요. 이 곳은 게스트하우스를 같이 운영하고 있는 곳이라서 숙박을 함께 해결할 수 있는 곳이었거든요. 그래서 매일 바베큐파티도 열려요. 단돈 2만원(저렴한건가 아닌가 헷갈리긴 하지만)으로 고기와 술을 계속 먹을 수 있죠. 그리고 새로운 친구들을 사귈 수 도 있고요. 서핑은 제가 매력적인 액티비티이고 바베큐파티는 추가적인 재미였어요. 만약 파티를 좋아한다면 바베큐파티도 놓치지 마시길.

제 2번째 서핑 이야기를 좋아하셨길 바라면서.. 제 이야기가 좋으셨다면 팔로우 부탁드려요. 감사합니다!!
