Sleepless in Korea

It's 5.30 in the morning and I'm sitting in bed, my back propped up against a wall with a pillow wedged in between for comfort.

I've been in Korea for a week now, but the jet lag is taking its time to subside.

The bed I'm sitting in belongs to a small guesthouse in Gyeongju, a town in the southeast of the country. Gyeongju is one of the oldest cities in Korea and known for its cultural treasures, temples and tombs.

For me coming here is more of a break from Seoul, the place I spend most of my time at in Korea. I love Seoul, yet the big city hustle can take its toll and at some point you just need to get out for a while. The other reason is the family that owns the guesthouse. It's really their private home and they provide some of the rooms for people to stay in, so it all has a very personal touch to it. Sometimes they even make dinner for everyone.

I like these people for their warmth and readiness to accept complete strangers into their house. And there are quite a few now, about 6 or 7 Korean girls and a guy from France who lived in Korea for a few years and now returned for a nostalgia trip. I love those trips, too.
