“Radical extremist” and copyright reform : It’s important.

Continuing my adventures in the culinary exploration of burgers I bring you: Farmer’s original hand made burgers in Busan, South Korea.   I discovered this burger place while wandering the streets of Busan randomly.  Anytime I stumble upon one of my ‘interest’ randomly I take it as an indication I should stop and have a look.

I didn’t find any other pieces but I did stumble upon a nice little coffee shop.  At first I suspected that it was a small book store.  It had several shelves full of books and several nice chairs that one could relax in.  I was checking out the interior of the shop from the outside when a group of older Korean ladies Continue reading →
