At last the weather has begun to change in Seoul from this week and the temperature reaches 18 degrees, until last week when the temperature was -6 degrees. Although in previous weeks and the weather was improving enough last week was a tremendous change as we again began to feel the cold of winter.

So last week a friend told me that this is the week of "revenge" and said there tell me that, I said what happens is that in Korea there is the belief that when the weather is definitely about to change from winter to spring, winter sends us a week quite cold but the envy of the arrival of spring, and so sent us this week for revenge.

Well let me tell you it is true, last week was bitterly cold when we are warm now, and already beginning to open all windows to air, to the point that I turn the air conditioning, hehe.

So good, we begin the spring and that also means that only a few months and coming home, really fast time passes.

From the first time I came to Korea I heard a lot about the exquisite food and if you enjoyed it enough at the time.

Now much more for every month I'm living here, but something I heard from the first time and had not been able to prove was the famous " Dog Soup . "

Bosintang (보신탕) or dog soup , is very famous, but very secret so to speak. All Koreans know about it, but nobody says you know they sell it here or you can go in this direction, it's kind of a myth but very real.

The breed of dog that is used for this soup is special, is raised specifically for consumption. There is a soup that is consumed weekly and has a price of 15,000 won (13 USD) per person, a bit expensive for all budgets. The interesting thing is that during the hottest days of the year, usually in summer, this dish is traditional, so they lack the space for restaurants cater to diners.

When I asked many colleagues and friends about the famous soup, all have told me they have heard of it, one or two have tried, others have not tested because they say it smells bad (which I am not aware at all) .

The soup itself is now consumed by older people, young people the truth is not consumed much by the subject who see dogs as pets, but I have other friends that they love.

The pleasure of listening and enjoy the music I got for my dad, since I have to remember why he was always with his LPs (Long Plays, vinyl, acetates) playing music at home, recording their cassettes to carry in the truck and where we were we listened to everything.

Singers such as Leo Dan , Palito Ortega were part of "basic" for the trip, José José , Camilo Sesto , The Tabajaras , The Huayanay , Nat King Cole , The Earthbound , among others were part of the discography traveling, so when many people put those songs I do not really sound odd, I think they are part of my growth.

A group that I liked and that were always reminded Ravens Cuenca group, dating from the 60s - 70s the genre rock and roll and ballads, the last time I saw them was on a tape that goes around the house.

For some time I was trying to find some songs from them, and today I finally made ​​it through this website called Disks Hard to Get , so I have it and it really sounds great with that classic sound the LP (scratch), the album was called "The Ravens came" and what I've read seems to be the only LP that they recorded it, if anyone has it I would like to purchase.
