-My most vivid memory during my Templestay at Hwaunsa was the early morning prayer service. Yes (I was comfortable)- it was very enjoyable. Very rewarding experience, opening my eyes to temple life. The benefit of a structured but optional schedule allows for ease of mind. Also the dogs/cats are friendly.

- My most vivid memory during my Templestay at Hwaunsa was the tea ceremony. Yes! (I was comfortable). No (there is nothing I would like to change). Really great cultural experience in a beautiful temple.
