#2_Changwon Hotel

So I'm in Changwon, and tomorrow I move into my apartment and go to work. It's been an awesome 2 days here. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of shops within a 50m radius from me, I've never seen such efficient use of space, they don't waste a cm. The food has been unbelievable, so cheap and so so so good! I just had a chicken burger at a McDonalds rip off, and instead of tomato sauce, it had Mayonnaise and Teriaky sauce (misspelt probably). Most delicious burger, ever.

Trying to buy work pants and get them re-cized was pretty funny. All my talking is done in mime and pointing to stuff, they in turn mime and point until we agree on what's being said.

The internet here is incredibly fast, the rumours are indeed true, and I had a great cup of coffee at the bakery this morning.

Its very humid here, and so I was wearing a singlet everywhere yesterday, getting stared down everywhere I went. I have a suspicion that singlets are counted as underwear here, as I've only seen them in the underwear section of shops under the heading 'Undershirts" Wearing a t-shirt today proved better, and I didn't get so many stares.

Take care guys, I love you, and I can't wait to go to a church on sunday!

Will post video of my apartment tomorrow if possible.

#1_Arriving in Incheon

I can't believe I'm in Korea, this is so strange!
I figured I'd create a little blog to document my experiences here, no doubt I'll give up quite fast, but why not try aye?

So guys, I arrive fine, and I am currently staying at a hotel in Incheon tonight, tomorrow morning I'll fly to Changwon - which is where I will live the coming year. However, my apartment in Changwon isn't ready yet, so they will put me up in a hotel for a further 2 nights before it all begins.

So I gotta say, its definitely difficult not being able to read or understand a word and not knowing Korean culture or customs. I just went for a walk around the hotel block, SO MANY Restaurants and crazy lights and stuff. Walked into a place looking for food, and all the owners started yelling cause I didn't take my shoes off!

It turned out they only served squid, so I moved on until I found a place with beef and rice. $4-50 for dinner guys, $4.50!

Anyways, I love you all, will keep you updated as things progress, crazy times aye!
