4k is not enough if you'll only stay in nice hotels

[gritty cargo]

[warm basalt]

But if you stay in hostels sometimes and have cheap meals it can work

I enjoyed myself for this amount

[gritty cargo]

[warm basalt]

is it that fast?

high speed catamaran I'm guessing

but there's no actual connection with Busan right

[dense arrow]

There is from where I am

Why is everything in Korean

[gritty cargo]

high speed?

[gritty cargo]

very good

[dense arrow]

It was a high speed boat, next time you should do weird routes like this to enter Japan

but I'll probably do this in April after leaving Korea

[gritty cargo]

Cool it also doesn’t work for Korean cards

I hope I can still secure a ticket on this train, first class, maybe I have to cycle to the railway station here in Mulgeum to get a ticket?

Can you remind me also which hotel you have?

Or do you have a very late check in time?

[gritty cargo]

Yes and yes but I’ll try to dump my shit there

Or I’ll use a locker at the station

Ryoma ikebukuro 5pm check in

In China I could check in at like 9am and in Japan they hate people during the day it seems

[storm iris]

Looks like locker time

I'm gonna see if I can check in 30 min early

[gritty cargo]

I’ll shoot them a message actually

[storm iris]

Mine is at 15:00

Is this a capsule hotel or a hostel?

I hear capsule hotels are ruthless

I quite liked the 9h ones but it’s expensive here now

Not from Busan no

I considered it from Mokpo and I think around Yeosu

[crimson juniper]

more Mokpo I guess

hmm

[gritty cargo]

But with the train it would be way more expensive

Even though I don’t mind the KTX to Mokpo

Ferry itself is more expensive

And the times suck

I looked it up and wouldn’t be able to make it on time I think

So it’d take me like one and a half day, and I wanted to maximise my time on Jeju before I fly to Vietnam
