Nice update brosef. As an aside, as elder US Military Korea Goon, if you're PCSing here or need anything related to that side of life in Korea, feel free to hit me up on Kakao, Gmail, or on here. Username is the same.

Cultural primer : don't gently caress with the olds, you're not Korean, please understand; traffic laws are fluid Just be extra considerate to a fault and you'll be fine. It depends on what you are doing cash wise, but most places will take visa or mastercard of you don't pull cash.

For a Japanese bike with medium miles that's not crazy. If my bike was scrapped I'd take a look at it, but I should be picking up mine from the shop today.

Yeaaaaah, that's gonna be a weird time. I can't imagine there's much of a Korean community around as there isn't a military base near by and it's not on the coast.

Chuseok has passed, now it's time for AMERICA! And lovely mspaints I threw together when I was supposed to be working First off, SIGN UP ON THE SPREADSHEET HERE IF YOU ARE EVEN PONDERING SHOWING UP! Better to have too much than not enough food! When is this shindig? November 28th, Last Saturday of November. Bit late, yeah, but most teachers aren't going to get Thursday off or anything. We'll be setting up and cooking around 2 or earlier, so just show up whenever? Food will be served around 6 to 7. Also, all are free to come the Friday before and help cook or just crash out at my place. I have plenty of room and blankets! MENU This year we're going simpler, with down home cooking, grits, meats, casseroles and whatever else we can think of. Maxsmart has stepped up to be lead chef this year and I'll be supplementing him where able. That being said, if anyone wants to bring something or come over the day before and help cook, you're more than welcome, just note it on the spreadsheet! How many bitcoins is this going to run me? Previous Turkeyparties have ran donations-only but generally 10k to 20k won is typical. If you don't have any cash don't let that be a deterrent though, tis the season for feeding freeloaders and I'll make up the diff. Where's it at? Since I've been movin' on up, this year it'll be smack dab in the middle of Itaewon! Using Naver or Daum you can get directions fairly easy, but it's just a few minutes from Itaewon Station. Try 75-5 Itaewon-dong or 21-3 Itaewon-ro 16-gil. Accommodations! As always, goons are free to crash on the floor if they desire. Or fight it out for Race Car Bed. I have a futon, couch, and another bed available as well. Otherwise, Itaewon Land is just up the street as well as a few motels in the area. If you're coming from out of town and need help just ask in thread or Kakao and we'll figure something out! Allergwarnings I do still have Goon Favorite cat Pablo and standoffish priss Beyori. I'll be sure to do a good cleanup the days before to limit cat dander and hair, and will also have allergy medication on hand if it gets too much for anyone. nullscan fucked around with this message at 02:54 on Sep 30, 2015 |

Which sign do you need? "Do this", "Don't do that", or "Cant you read the sign?". There are plenty around, but they block out the scenery and give me a headache.

I was stabbed once in Waikiki when I was a little drunk and went down the wrong alley. I've been obliterated in Seoul and had to walk 5 miles home through every sketch alley imaginable multiple times and was fine. There has been a rise of stories in the HBC / Itaewon area of weird dudes following single women around at night and flashing them though.

With such innovative trash disposal methods such as 'Pile all the poo poo up on the street, don't buy the actual city waste bags so it wont get picked up, let street dogs and cats and wild adjummas pick through it for sustenance/recyclables, then finally scoop the remnants into a truck a month later' how could we not be the cleanest city in Asia?

But I am having a difficult time finding the answers on the internet so I am asking you fine folks for information / input. You're right, but hey, at least they aren't whoring out to norebangs at night like my ex was! Check out http://8tharmy.korea.army.mil/sja/assets/doc/visa/Korean_Employment_Permits_for_Dependents_with_SOFA%20Status.pdf it looks a little old, and doesn't explain repricussions, but whatever.

Yeah but if she takes her us laptop cable they should be able to sell her a Korean pronged one. Just double check that your power supply does 220 or 240 or whatever. Most modern computers do.
