so a few friends and I went to
a place called Kindigo to experience
Korean indigo dyeing
and the experience turned out
to be much more than what I expected
as soon as we walked in
we were warmly greeted
and offered tea and snacks
I have a stick
the instructor then showed us
how different natural materials
can give us different colors of dyes
we even got to drink some of it
and it was the first time I ever
drank tea made from wood
and surprise it tasted just like wood
she then told us that indigo
is the hardest dye to prepare
and it's an ancient art
but we got to do the easy part
which is dyeing the fabrics
are you recording? yes you are
ready
we're ready
guys!
Nancy is leaving in 2 days
it's ok she's putting on her apron
Hi!
we're going to do indigo dyeing
so excited!
we're getting creative
not just going to coffee shops today
do something actually
but we are going to coffee shops though
we did already
I already went to two
how's it going guys?
I broke my first rubber band
you have to do it until it's really really tight
it's forcefully (Korean) but I did it too forcefully (Korean)
yeah this one's nice
I'm going to zoom in to Nancy's nails
with her own face on them
that's so cool
did you go to that uh cafe in Hongdae?
yeah we went together
good job
hello
what are you doing now?
spreading and squeezing
God!
there was something on my camera sorry
so since I'm moving soon
I sold both of my drying racks
and
I had to dry my scarf
thing over there
and it still smells a lot like indigo
and then tomorrow after it's dry
I'm suppose to put it in warm water
so I'm so glad I did this
with Dani and Wiestke cuz
I don't know lately
I've just been like going to cafes in Seoul
and feeling like there wasn't that much to do here
but
sometimes when you do stuff like art
it calms you
and
makes you feel good
what I love the most about this
indigo dyeing experience
was that the people there
were so nice
and they just made us feel really welcome
um
to see someone
doing a job that they actually
really enjoy and really want to do
just really inspires you
and I think especially living in an Asian country
it's rare to see that
to see people doing what they truly love to do
and their
and their passion for what they do
kind of rubs off on you
and it just makes me so emotionally touched
and I'm lucky too
for being able to do what I want to do
she was telling us that we could go back any time
for tea or just to talk about stuff
and it made me realize
and kind of made me want to cry
because living as a foreigner
in any foreign country
that's like not your home country
is really hard
especially if you don't know the language that well
and everything is just so much more difficult
and you don't have your family beside you
you're all alone
all you can depend on are friends
and it's hard to make friends so
being in a foreign country is so lonely
and
it's those kind strangers
that we meet along the way
that makes everything better
so I just hope we can all
be kinder towards people
kinder to strangers
kinder to everyone we meet
on our journey
because that can make all the difference
so if you are interested
in the indigo dyeing experience too
I'm going to leave their Facebook page down below
the place is called Kindigo
and they're trying to preserve the art
and tradition of Korean indigo dyeing
and if you have any questions
you can send them a message about the schedule
about different events they have
apparently they also do like DIY soap making
and other things but the indigo is their main event
and Eunha I believe is her name
speaks perfect English
so send any questions you have over there
I really hope you try it
cuz it was definitely
one of the more memorable experiences
I've ever had in Korea
and with that
I need to start packing
because tomorrow I will be
leaving this apartment and staying at
my friend Yoora's place for one night
before I head off to China
so yeah
time to get busy
bye!
