I envy Story's childhood. She growing up in a very nurturing family, not experiencing any mental or emotional stresses, undamaged by traumas. Beautiful child. Sacha and J are admirable.
South Korean is one of the coolest places ever n the world. With great respect to your vegan diet, the wonder of Korean cuisine does include veggies but it’s delight is sharing a Korean bbq.
I've been here 18 months, and I gotta say that Waze is definitely the easiest app for English speakers. Plus it has a "terminator" mode so you can have Arnold tell you where to go.
it's really crazy that in just a matter of almost 4 hours of travel, you get to arrive at a place wherein the weather, time, language and food scene are entirely different from where you've been. do check out N Seoul Tower, Lotte World, Bukchon Hanok Traditional Village, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Myeongdong, Hangang Park and COEX Mall 😁 traveling to Asian countries like Singapore, Seoul or Tokyo gives Filipinos a glimpse of what life is like in a first world country. disheartening really when you notice how vast the differences are, still, i am thankful that i am a Pinoy living in the Philippines 😊
Have a wonderful vacation love family. Enjoy the cold weather/winter that you missed so much. Story is full of eagerness to explore. Have fun. Take care and be safe.
If you find difficulty in locating an area, the young people can be very helpful because they have an app on their celphones that can help you where to go. Young people are also familiar with the english language especially the students or the working people. Good luck in your travel.
The streets are sooo quiet and empty for a city. And clean !!!!! Wish Manila is the same. The only saving grace is Filipinos are friendlier and more hospitable, I think .
Story brings so much joy. I really like her very happy spirit. And at her age, she is already very good on vlogging. I like her English accent a lot. I will be looking forward to your upcoming vlogs in Seoul Korea. Take care and have a lot of fun!
i noticed that cold countries tend to be quiet than tropical countries. even new york the most densely populated city in the world is quiet during winter! maybe because people dont want to talk and stay outside shivering with cold. they would rather stay indoor warmed. even birds can't do any noise during winter... lol> in the philippines i think even roosters are actively making noisy! lol
If you happen to lose your train cards and you haven't got out yet of the train exit, just approach the personnel in the small windowed offices there/info places ,and they will let you out with no issues.
Google map are so effecient also in going around in south korea. Special the bus schedulw and also the train subway schedule. I hope you enjoy going around in the Seoul. 👍👍👍👍
What a beautiful kid you are Story. You’re so nice to your parents and so fast to adopt and adjust in a different culture. I wish all kids are like you.Hey keep up your strong resistance and I’m praying for your entire family as well as Poppy to be in good,good health.Merry Christmas!
Sir, If I may recommend, never map/navi or kakao map, are best maps to use in Korea particularly. Especially in Seoul. For the metro/trains there are several apps available. You can go around Seoul via the subway, it's very intuitive. If you're place is somewhere nearby the line 2(green color-code) subway line then its lot easier because that's the main line that goes around almost all of the major places in Seoul
oh i miss that place!... enjoy your vacation! ...by the way, there is an amazing coffee shop named Cafe Darak...its inside the building Jeongdong Observatory... the coffee is cheap and the view below is so amazing!
I looked at the weathr forecast of Seoul and I saw there is a chance of snow on the 26th of December. Seems the same temperature here in Maryland. Everything seems to be in order. I need to go here one day. Thank you for showing Korea. Opened my eyes how different this place is compare to the U.S.
Story you’re so cute & very intelligent girl.yes,I agree,S.Korea’s weather is the same as UK weather,rt now here in uk is -4deg.frosty and some of the places are having snow but not in London yet 🙂enjoy your trip in Seoul..
Seoul can get cold snaps like the uk has never seen before, and and the summer is very hot and humid, a most British will likely need time to adjust to this as well.
Enjoy your So. Korean vacay! And, keep warm and be safe always! Excited to be following your vlogs and learning more from your first impressions and experiences. 🤗🤔😍
I like Story's pink jacket, it's beautiful 😍 It's good in a way that it's not that cold or snowy yet because you're not properly dressed as well. Take care guys and have fun!
I remember feeling cold when we we to Nami and it is 11 degrees lol... I hope you can go to a kid's cafe for Story... There's a lot of great kid's cafe in Seoul that Story will love so much... COEX starfield library and also lotte tower is a must for me... I enjoyed those places
I think 'Naver Map' is the top Navigation App there in 🇰🇷, it'll be very helpful to you guys navigating the exact location you want to go ☺️ Have fun there! 💕 Sending warm hugs 🤗
Seeing Korea thru your lenses, the scenery where there was nothing but water, it was quite spooky. Then came next the very industrial look in factories. Then, when you were walking, wherein it was very quiet, which quite unfathomable to comprehend most specially to Filipinos where the surroundings are loud, littered with people and everybody in their casual homey get ups and flip flops.
Wow...Korea looks nice! Thanks 8 miles for this video ❤️ I’m gonna have to go there during the summer though 😂 I just hope next year will be easier for travelers. First off I need a passport renewal and hoping it won’t be so hard to go the US embassy.
@@amaliahightower spring used to be good, but it is very dusty by yellow sand wind from north China. I think May and October is the best. do not forget to visit Jeju island and Pusan as well. :-)
Hi my fave british fam, hi Story, you are such a happy child, enjoying each time you vlog, you always put smiles on our faces, thanks for sharing your vlogmas plus your daily vlogs, Jay & Sash, happy christmas.🙂❤
I think google maps is meant to be like that in Seoul because technically, they are still at war with the North. So any detailed information about the locations especially in the city; buildings, streets, alleyways, shortcuts etc is, for lack of better word, hard to access. Just a guess though. Edit: and, you got to have the Korean equivalent of Google Map, where it is monitored by the Korean Government.
Google map also works well in South Korea. You can get sim card with data, or get everything you need while connected to wifi in the airport. Thanks for taking us back there. I wish you could tell us the street names or some names of where you are going. Have fun!
Hello, how's Poppy Love getting on in pet hotel? I hope she's safe and happy with other fur babies. Have fun in Korea, can't wait to see you back with Poppy in Manila. Stay safe.🙏🙏
It's supposed to be summer here in Australia but it's quite cold love how story looks like such a boss girl walking through the streets 🤣🥰 she reminds me of my Ryder he is 6 and definitely a little boss too ☺️
Wow I didn’t know that you’re coming in korea i live in incheon near songdo .try to buy T money in seven eleven you can use that by train or buses more cheaper.too bad i am here in philippines for vacation and I return back in korea this coming December 27anyway Good luck and i joy your vacation in korea
That area, behind the Seoul station, is an old town though in the core of Seoul. Nice to see through your vlog. (first car is actually hydrogen fuel cell car)
Beautiful and clean city..
Take care n happy holidays.
We were very excited to discover this place

9:14
the heating is usually through the floor (using a gas boiler) -> hot water circulating in pipes embedded under the floor
Wow! Enjoy your first day in cold Seoul.
I've been here 18 months, and I gotta say that Waze is definitely the easiest app for English speakers. Plus it has a "terminator" mode so you can have Arnold tell you where to go.

There are very very few homeless in Seoul, but the area near Seoul Station is a gathering place for the homeless in Seoul.
As a korean, i can claim that summer in seoul is florida and winter is moscow

한국의 날씨는 추워요~~
추위에 대비하시고 즐거운 여행 하시길!!
따님이 감기에 걸릴까 걱정되네요♡
youll surely love "Cheonggyecheon stream" in the middle of the city.. late afternoon to night time the best there 👀🎄🎄🎄

That’s the good thing that Philippines as your base & can travel elsewhere

Kakao apps works in Korea... kakao maps, kakao metro, kakao bus etc that's what we used when we were there.
The place can be quiet as people, culturally, keep to themselves.
People tend to be loud amongst themselves.
Enjoy Seoul. Hwaiting!
have fun!
old town in seoul. it's old. the land is very expensive. have a good time.
It's very cold here in the UK -3 in South Oxfordshire countryside...and it's even colder up north the country....🥶

summer is beyond your thoughts, very very hot and humid. I recommend autumn.
@@ramiyo3606 ty...yes found out when I googled when d best time 2go. You’re right about autumn n also spring.
@@amaliahightower spring used to be good, but it is very dusty by yellow sand wind from north China. I think May and October is the best. do not forget to visit Jeju island and Pusan as well. :-)
Autumn is best time to go october time is good to go especially during colorful scenery mountain surrounded to Seoul.
We were in Seoul in January and it snowed
Hi my fave british fam, hi Story, you are such a happy child, enjoying each time you vlog, you always put smiles on our faces, thanks for sharing your vlogmas plus your daily vlogs, Jay & Sash, happy christmas.🙂❤
Story is so cute
Does anyone notice how tall Story is getting, amazing.

It does work, but not for directions. Only the map layout. Which is fine
Google maps is awful in South Korea, many businesses not even listed.
Enjoy and keep safe
The excitement is contagious! Have fun on your Korea trip🎉
Beautiful family, I’m going this upcoming January
Hello, how's Poppy Love getting on in pet hotel? I hope she's safe and happy with other fur babies. Have fun in Korea, can't wait to see you back with Poppy in Manila. Stay safe.🙏🙏
❤Thank you for sharing the travel❤
Enjoy your vacation 🧡
Take care guys❤️❤️❤️
It's supposed to be summer here in Australia but it's quite cold love how story looks like such a boss girl walking through the streets 🤣🥰 she reminds me of my Ryder he is 6 and definitely a little boss too ☺️
There is a philippine coffeeshop that expanded there in korea named HalfSaint. I hope you get to check them if you can.
Enjoy your vacay ✌️🇺🇸
Wow I didn’t know that you’re coming in korea i live in incheon near songdo .try to buy T money in seven eleven you can use that by train or buses more cheaper.too bad i am here in philippines for vacation and I return back in korea this coming December 27anyway Good luck and i joy your vacation in korea
Welcome to Korea but it's really cold time here in a year. You should be very careful for keeping you warm when you are outside.
Nice family.
That area, behind the Seoul station, is an old town though in the core of Seoul. Nice to see through your vlog. (first car is actually hydrogen fuel cell car)
3:24 so cute ^^
Koreans like to go to the Philippines to learn English. Roundtrip flight from Cebu to Seoul is about 140 USD
Have a nice day
