Wow, gorgeous views there! Also.. did you say THREE students?? Dang! That was a surprisingly large facility considering the low number of students.

Happy Holidays!!! 💜💜

[@nikitasantamaria]

oh my goodness that island looks like a postcard come to life, it's so beautiful!! As an introvert i wouldn't mind living on an island like that with so few people lol, also jealous of the school only having 3 students lol that's hilarious

[@NataliaGarza]

I AM SO UPSET THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE POSTCARDS!!!!!! The islands were so beautiful and I can't put a postcard of them on my wall :((((((( Also ahahah as an introvert I prefer big cities because I'm not expected to say hi to people unlike in small towns where everybody knows everybody

[@dayamond]

Hope you enjoyed your trip to Mokpo and islands :) Hopefully, you had safe trip in those islands! Traveling alone could be dangerous to girls in Sinan county

[@NataliaGarza]

Ahhhh yes I know which case you're referring too.... I was traveling with a group so I was more than safe~

[@ervinslens]

Absolutely stunning cinematography my friend. Everything here is done beautifully! 🔥

[@NataliaGarza]

WOW ahah thank you~ I think it was mostly that the landscapes were beautiful 🥹 they did all the work ahaha
