Nice Little Saturday

Yesterday I went to the Seoul Word DJ Fest. It was a beautiful day, there were lots of diverse people, which was a nice change from the rest of the time here. For example, Koreans with dreadlocks and wearing second hand clothing. Blasphemous to the culture and I loved it. I felt amongst my own kind cause there were lots of foreigners. THe music was great, the staff were awesome. There were lots of artists and different interests represented. It really felt like a music fest at home.I got there at 4pm and left at 4am. It was crazier at 4am than at 10pm.

There was also a tattoo booth. There is a new shop opening up here in Seoul and they were promoting not only the shop, but tattooing in general. Its definitely not a popular thing here. At about 8 they started doing free tattoos. Yes, free and real. So I got in line and got myself a new tattoo! I got the Korean word for three, Sam. Three is my favorite number and my nickname here is Sam, which are also my initials. Meaningful on so many levels. All sorts of people were looking at the whole process and I think a lot of Korean people were pretty impressed that I got a Korean tattoo. I absolutely love it. I was going to get it when I go to Japan in July, but why wait when it is free?
