I just figured out that I’m one week behind with updating and posting atmosphere snapshots on my blog. So here are some snapshots taken during the Mentorsclub MT weekend. It took place in the countryside of Korea about three hours outside Seoul. During daytime we did some fun stuff like paintball shooting, playing football and at night we had a nice dinner, did some drinking and norebang (Karaoke). Enjoy the snapshots!
