"The bar is Very Small, so only Koreans come in. Sorry Sorry Sorry"
Bags are packed, and I'm on my way to Heathrow.
Heading to Debconf in Busan, Korea 🇰🇷, followed by Wikimania in Katowice, Poland 🇵🇱.

My bag was the first on the luggage carousel! This has never happened before!

While planning my trip to a #Debconf24 in Korea, I discovered an affordable flight via Mongolia. This presented a chance to visit a place I'd never imagined seeing. While there is only one daily flight from Europe to Mongolia, there are multiple flights from there to Seoul, giving me flexibility. I chose the schedule with the longest layover to maximize my time in Mongolia. Arriving at 5 AM, I had until 8:30 PM before my onward journey to Seoul, giving me a full day to explore.

Every platform on the Seoul subway has a cabinet of smoke hoods. There are videos playing on the subway trains explaining how to use them.
If you installed these on the London underground then drunk people would be wearing them almost immediately.

I checked into my Seoul hotel room last night, here's a few highlights.
The bed is hilariously massive for the room—like sleeping on an island!
Loving the modern tech touches: my first encounter with a wireless charging pad in a hotel room and there's even Ethernet for a solid wired connection.
Played a quick round of 'find the kettle'—it was sneakily hidden in a cupboard marked 'Room Amenity.'

Back at Frankfurt airport. Today I'm flying to Seoul with MIAT, a Mongolian airline. I've got a fifteen hour layover in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia. My hold bag is checked all the wait to Seoul.
