Life in Busan: A Peaceful and Beautiful Experience
My name is Abishkar Rijal, and I’m from Kathmandu, Nepal. I arrived in Busan on February 25, and since then, it has been a fascinating and memorable journey. As a student here, I’ve been lucky to experience both academic life and the vibrant culture that surrounds the city.
Our university life has been wonderful—filled with excitement, learning, and friendships. One of the highlights so far was our visit to Lotte World. We truly enjoyed ourselves there, and it remains one of my most cherished memories in Busan. The joy, laughter, and togetherness of that day still make me smile.
Among the many beautiful places in Busan, Dong-eui Park is my favorite. It’s peaceful, green, and always refreshing to visit. I often spend time there relaxing or walking, enjoying the calm nature in the middle of the city. I also love going to Haeundae and Gwangalli Beaches. The sea breeze, stunning views, and soothing sound of the waves give me a sense of calm and happiness. And of course, a visit to Mom’s Touch for a delicious meal makes the day even better!
What truly makes Busan special for me is its culture and the people’s manners. The environment here is so quiet, clean, and well-organized. I feel comfortable and safe. The advanced technology and convenience in everyday life also impress me a lot.
Living in Busan has been a beautiful experience so far. It’s a place where I can grow, learn, and enjoy life in a peaceful and friendly atmosphere. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be here and look forward to many more memories in this amazing city.
