찜질방(Zim zil bang)

찜질방(Zim zil bang)

This weeks Group activity was going to "Zim Zil Bang" . Zim Zil Bang is similar to a Spa. When you get there you are given special clothes to change into. The Place has game arcade, Multiple sauna-caves with varying temperatures, sleeping areas, salt saunas, massage, facials, bath house, food area and more. The place we went to Dragon, is one of the biggest in seoul i believe. It was also egyptian themed. 

when we first got there we were divided by gender to go to the changing rooms.

We all went in the sauna and sleeping rooms and ate. we also played some games. yuika, sjoerd and I did a marathon as i called it in the sauna. We started in the "hot" sauna then to the "hottest" then to the cold room and then "hot" "hottest" and back to cold. Then we went to the sleeping rooms were we lied on top of peebles/rock to relax. after we tried traditional drinks. One was made with grain powder and initially tastes like iced-coffee/hot chocolate, the other i don't remember the taste but it had rice in it. We also ate a lot of eggs.

we spent about 4 hours at the spa. After we changed and returned to Anam for dinner.

Dinner:

For Dinner we all got individual dishes and we shared "pancakes"

My individual dish was a chicken soup! I and others who had it were quite disappointment it was really bland! My first let down with korean food but the pancake was great!!


This was a seafood pancake! its made of potatoes and it has squid and shrimp. Suprisingly i really like squid! I have had it in a couple meals and its really good lol!

well it was a great relaxed day and a fun time with POWER8ade!!!!
