I always wanted to live in a place where the natural features change when the seasons change. 

As a person who comes from a country that is hot year-round, I always wanted to see snow, to see the trees change their leaves' colors. I always wanted to see the beautiful small white flowers that are called cherry blossoms.

In Korea, I could see cherry blossoms in the streets without even spending the money to travel somewhere. 

In Korea, you can see the beauty of spring everywhere around you. Even in your busy life, you can notice beauty in the streets.

This is a video that I took of spring in Korea. 

Finally, here are some photos I took in Korea, too.

Enjoy 😊

Spring at Geumohsan Mountain in Gumi

I recently traveled to Geumohsan Mountain in Gumi City, where I live.

As we all know, spring also means the season of flowers. I wanted to capture the seasonal beauties before they were all gone.

I went for a hike extra early, departing at 6 a.m., to avoid the crowds and it was a smart move. I was able to capture pictures of some of the flowers in their purest form of beauty. 

Cherry blossom trees are reflected in the water.

Branches are full of cherry blossoms.

A close-up view lets you carefully inspect a red apricot flower.

The cherry blossom branches dangle over the stream. 

Cherry blossoms twigs fall into the crystal clear stream.

Cherry blossoms look even more beautiful close-up.

Red apricot blossoms challenge the cherry blossoms for most beautiful flower. 

Forsythias and red apricots grow next to each other.
