Korea! Pros& Cons

I am in the land of Korea!! I just wanted to let you folks know that crafting may be on hold, shopping for crafting is still on and taking pictures is most definitely still on. I've been here a couple of days and it is monsoon season so it is pouring cats and dogs outside.. and some cows and pigs and chickens too. It's a barnyard out there. I also spent some time meeting up with Liz! and did tons of shopping. I love how good shopping is in Korea. But it's so humid and there is so much walking to do.

Anywho here are some pros and cons of Korea that I forget.

Cons:

- Older Korean folks are rude and will physically push you out of the way in public areas such as the subway. There is no Korean equivalent for excuse me and giving you a chance to move.

- Korean girls are skinny.... too skinny. Anorexic skinny making me feel fat.

- Korean clothing sizes are one size fits all which is not true. Because one size does NOT fit all.

- Monsoon season equals tons of humidity. TONS of humidity.

- Iced coffee and other iced drinks are ridiculously expensive costing the equivalent of $5.00 per drink making my one iced coffee a day a very expensive habit.

- Smoking in establishments has not been outlawed. :( Gives me a headache and a stomachache.

- There is no diet coke in Korea, just light coke... which is not available everywhere. 

- You have to walk everywhere!

Pros:

- The handles in the Korean subways are low enough for me to reach! YAY

- Korean subways have a sign that shows where the previous train is and you never wait more than 5 minutes no matter what time of the night or day.

- It's possible to find cute but still cheap clothing/accessories without blatant compromise of quality. 

- You can eat a full meal for 5 dollars... QUALITY meal!

- I might finally get off my diet coke addiction since they are not available here!!!

- You have to walk everywhere!

More to come :)
