So I've now been in Korea for a full 24 hours and have had so many adventures already!
The biggest adventure of the day was trying to find a grocery store or restaurant for some food. Turns out, they're not that hard to find. After following the busy road that is behind my apartment for 3-4 blocks I came across a sort of shopping strip. I didn't get a picture of it but I'll get a couple tomorrow. Yesterday Sky told me that my school is in this area. Eventually I did find a grocery store and successfully purchased some food with the help of a very patient cashier.
Prices here are so different from the US and the money is crazy but I kinda like it. Each denomination of bill is a different color which is helpful. Also a bill that is worth more is slightly larger than one that is worth less, same goes for the coins. Because bills and coins are color and size coded, I'm sure I'll soon be a pro at making purchases.
Finished unpacking for the most part. Just hanging around, watching Korean cooking shows, and resting up now. Can't wait for tomorrow to see my school and kids! :D
I took some photos but, unfortunately, Blogger doesn't seem to want me to upload them. Sorry. :( I will keep trying and hopefully soon I can post some.
