Quick retreat to Naoshima, Japan – a beautiful island full of art.

Going for a bike ride in Gyeongju, South Korea. Jenia is skeptical of filming and biking.
Last day in Seoul, also happens to be 65th anniversary of South Korea’s armed forces. A military parade – how cool is that?!
Spending a few hours at Jjimjilbang (찜질방), aka Korean spa, aka not Spa World (best ever Korean spa on the planet — at least the one we’ve been too. But! our Seoul experience was still pretty cool.
