korean food at spa world

(photos taken by my iphone)

I’ve heard about spaworld for a few months now and have been wanting to go for a long time. Today I finally had the opportunity to go and since Carissa is visiting from out of town i invited her to come along. It was definitely a cultural experience for us. We had a really nice relaxing time there at the “thermal” baths and different rooms made of natural elements like amethyst, clay, onyx etc.

There was also a cafe and restaurant in spaworld. Carrissa ordered an interesting cold noodle dish. It is creamy and tasted like there was plenty of crushed roasted sesame seed in it. It was good but since i don’t like my noodles cold, unless it’s soba noodles, i probably won’t order it next time i come but i’m glad i had the chance to try it. I ordered instant ramen noodles and specially stewed eggs, which apparently is the diet of students in korea. I was happy with my food but they didn’t look so great so i didn’t get a photo of it.

I definitely recommend a trip to spaworld if you ever get the chance. However I strongly suggest that you read about it on Yelp or go to their website to get a better idea of it before you go.

daniel and jihee lombardi

Daniel and Jihee are friends of mine who have been married for a couple of years. They never had the chance to get engagement photos before they were married and wanted some fun non-wedding type photos to put on the wall so we scheduled a him & her session.

A him & her session is for couples – you don’t have to be engaged to get fun pictures together. These pictures are fun and casual definitely frame worthy!

I had a fabulous time with this session. I could tell that there’s just so much love and chemistry between them, you can see that from the pictures. The session was taken in Washington DC on the waterfront as well as somewhere near E Street. Thanks for a great time guys!
