finally, our very packed and fun-filled 6D5N seoul trip is coming to an end.
our flight is in the late afternoon but the plan is to move out to the airport right after lunch so we can have time to shop @ incheon airport (which is really good to shop!).
morning was spent packing up all our stuff.
after checking out and depositing our luggage with the concierge, we moved out for our last lunch in seoul.
the temperature dipped a little that morning so temperature was at a cool 19 degrees.
decided for pipping hot congee for lunch!
we tried a random congee eatery near our hotel and the beef bulgogi congee is super yummy!
i think the congee here beat the previous 味加本 that we tried 2 days back...
*nom nom*
we booked a cab to the airport and the fees was pretty reasonable ~ $70.
though if you take subway and switch to airport train it will just cost $15+ like how we first made our way into town the first day. LOL.
the flight back was not as smooth as the flight to seoul. :(
still, im very glad when we touched down singapore at night! home sweet home indeed.
till our next holidays!!
now, on my shopping stash!!
it was not easy trying to buy stuff for myself when most of the time you are with kids and the husband.
but after being "trained" for so many years, its abit of a stretch but still doable to shop FAST with them.
and of cos, the late night shopping alone helps too. :P
so what did i buy?
the most obvious stuff will be masks and skincare! we are in seoul afterall! :)
the masks here are much more cheaper than in sg ~ ard $1+ per piece.
and best of all from buying all these beauty products is all the freebies that come along with it!
the best freebies came from sulwhasoo (if you are familiar with this korean brand selling in SG).
its is around 15-20% cheaper as compared to SG but the freebies are shocking!
i bought the first care activating serum and ginseng renewing moisturiser and i got the following:
- 2 travel kits (4 products each - cleanser. toner. first care serum. ginseng renewing moisturiser)
- overnight treatment (15ml)
- cleanser (30ml)
i think i bought over 120+ masks (though i gave away half of them to friends and colleagues...).
also bought laneige products to try too (its around 40% cheaper over there!)
only 1 pair of shoes from conscious effort not to look at shoes (i think i have enough shoes at home and the shoe cabinet is really bursting at its seams liao...).
clothings wise, i think i did ok. it was after all not a shopping trip for me.. @_@
around 15+ pieces of clothings altogether with prices ranging from ($20+ to $100+) - good variety!
best buys from the trip will be the 2 bags!! :D
1) MCM backpack which i really like and started using over there. ha. very good for on the move leaving me hands-free.
MCM is known for being much cheaper in korea.
thanks to the husband for getting this for me!
2) Prada mini saffiano bag in pink!
i wanted to get a small sling bag for sometimes and my top choice was really celine luggage nano and i think its pretty impossible to get luggage anything unless you are in their france boutique. @_@
i was still checking online if its cheaper to buy from seoul. most of the results say that it is the cheapest to buy prada in incheon (a well kept secret obviously) in asia! more so than HK.
so i bought the bag without really knowing how much it costs in SG... :P
but im glad i did for it was a good buy!
i had the chance to check out the prices from prada branch in ion when back in sg and the retail price here is whooping 30% more expensive and they only have it in black. HIAKS!
im a happy woman.
ok that conclude the second trip for the ng family this year.
im starting to think of our next destination for year-end! Yeah! :D
