입트영(2019.3.29) Jeju Island 제주도

[STEP1] 제주도에 간 경험에 대해 이야기해 주세요.

몇 년 전에 제주도를 놀러 갔다. 바닷가 바로 옆에 있는 펜션을 예약했다. 공항에 내려서 렌터카를 빌려서 숙소로 향했다. 바닷가 전망이 무척 마음에 들었다. 짐을 풀자마자, 여러 관광지를 방문했다. 한라산을 등반하기도 했다. 제주도에서만 먹어 볼 수 있는 음식들도 많이 먹었다.


Talk about when you went on a trip to Jeju island.

A few years ago, I went on vacation to Jeju island. We reserved a cabin room right by the sea. When we touched down at the airport, we rented a car and headed to the cabin.
