Sooo.... not much blogging of late, as been so busy with family, taking Korean lessons (I am really bad at languages it seems) and now my new hobby: fishing.
I haven't fished since I was 15 years old, but have always wanted to get back into it. Lots of fond memories with friends, family, especially with my Uncle in France who rented land near a small lake. I spent most of my time catching nothing, but just loved the way it seemed to still the mind.
A small lake is near to the flat I am staying at, the weather amazing, so I thought why not buy a fishing pole and give it a try. So off to the shops I went, bought a budget asian style fishing pole; the type with no reel, just pole, line, floater and hooks.
The scenery was amazing:

I may not have caught a single fish, but loved watching other people fish... and also catch nothing. Unity in failure :)
One of the most relaxing days in years. Very therapeutic and just what I needed to get me out of the funk I was in.

I must have fished for 8 hours with no success, but the end of the evening was the best part. The setting sun looked spectacular leaving me feeling so chilled. Great day, will defo do again.
