After riding a bike 8km along bike lane of Anyangchun for about an hour, I reached the
southern end of Yanghwa Bridge crossing Yeouido and the Han River. I rode there without
stopping so that I can be in the wide-open spaces of nature and breathe fresh air while
seeing far away. Getting away from daily routine, confined inside buildings it’s like
finding an oasis in the desert. Like that woman who is taking a rest watching the
Han River, I hope to stop going familiar paths and have time and rest to relieved the
fatigue of my spirit.
