Su Hyeon; Haein's best friend and Jun Su from Seoul came to visit us but now they brought another family with them. The other family has a small son called Kit Chan. He was so cute and amazingly funny. A 4D kid with a world of his own..hahaha.
Su Hyeon wanted to have a snack (과자) party before
we went to Lee Seung Bok Memorial.

Min Young, a 20 year old Seoulite came as a guest in Santisuk in late April. She rented the room for 50,000 won per night. However, surprisingly Nandida offered her to work with her for a year and study english with the wwoofers which was a great idea. Since then, we became good friends. These days we went to the open market in Jinbu but with Haein.
It snowed whenever we wanted to go out. Our outing has its own special name, as invented by Hojin - 'Prison Break'
Haein with her spongebob bag. We couldn't wait to go out but we missed the 2.10pm bus to Jinbu. Luckily, Nandida's friend gave us a ride.
Nandida's friend bought us tteokpokki and heotteok before she left us.

Haein's schoolmate and obviously she's the prettiest
because she's our princess!! ^^
Min Young and Haein.
W drank banana milk which I previously hate. I prefer the blue version -
lite banana milk rather than the regular green which tasted like cold/flu
medicine to me.
The lite version.
I took this picture from Lee Seung Bok memorial but it was so
ironic cause the next day it was bright and sunny.
Nandida!! I bought face masks for the family and we tried it.
Though Haein is still young - 11 years old but we wanted her to have a tryout too..hehe.
Mr Lee, Hojin and Haein planted flowers for spring but I couldn't help them cause I had to take care Ratana. Weather in early spring is really unpredictable, sometimes it was very warm, sometimes it rained and even snowed. Hmmm..I should say that if you come in May, the weather is still quite cold between 10 to 15 celcius so be prepared with some jacket/cardigan.

In 1620, in ruins of Jayakarta, the Dutch rebuilt a new town and named Batavia to tribute to Batavieren, tribes of Europe that was an ancestor of the Dutch, in a East side of river of Ciliwung where the core city still can be seen in area of Taman Fatahillah.
The citizen of Batavia is called Batavianen who knows as people of Betawi. The people of Betawi is a composite of many tribes
Batavia in 1635 had been expanded to west side of Ciliwung river above ruins of Jayakarta. This town had been fully developed with security system such as wall and trench around the city. The spatial consist with blocks that separated with canals. The developing of Batavia was finished in 1650. After Japanese era in 1942, Batavia renamed become “Jakarta”
