Hullo! I haven't been around here for a long time but I've really grown to like this community : ). And so I thought I'd post here to tell people that I'm moving to Seoul tommorow!

Basically the point of this is because I wanna meet some people when I get over there, maybe grab some beers or something, and just have fun : ) I just finished my Uni degree (I'm 21 and from Ireland) and thought it'd be a pretty awesome experience to spend a year (or more, who knows) in Korea, if i happen to get my ass kicked in Starcraft a few hundred times then I'm down with that too! I'm like a D+ Zerg. : )

So if any of you dudes in Seoul who want to go out for a beer or something sometime soon then gimme a shout! I'm honestly not sure where I'll be living but that just makes it more exciting?!? I guess? : (

Well, you can always live at some guesthouse or at jimjilbang for a while.

I don't live in Korea anymore but if you're in Seoul, get omurice at Omuto Tomato. I grantee it's really kickass! Some real random advice but for some reason that was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this blog.

Well basically I'm gonna be in a Motel in the Gangnam area (I think that's what it was on the subway map) for a few days while I get an apartment,

I've heard the food is amazing! So I will definitely keep this Omuto Tomato place in mind. : ]

I'm living in Seoul right now - if you fancy going to any games give me a bell. I'll be working at the events, but it'd be cool to see another foreigner at loox or Yongsan.

going north of the river will be cheaper than south. a small studio in kangnam area, fully furnished will run you around 900-1200 a month, USD. if you're in kangnam area and decide to come out to coex mall, i live right around there, send me a PM or something if you wanna catch dinner. i'm always up for meeting new TL people.

Ohh man this is so awesome!

Everyone here is so friendly : ], even with my completely broken Korean, we usually just end up playing charades for like 5 minutes and then we'll both laugh for different reasons.

I think I'll be living nearish to Euljiro? I was originally going to be around samsongdong but I guess my boss figured to move me with my circumstances.

Anyway! nice amount of response here, appreciate it! :} I'll definitely try to arrange some meetings sometime.

The motel I stayed in the night before I came here in London had like, a single bed and a rusty bath and it cost a similar amount to this one, where they provided free internet, some.... HOOOJ tv, watercooler, A/C (thank god : } ) and a double bed... and lots of other fun things! ooh a hairdryer.

Now I need to turbolearn korean. At the moment I try to get most people to write what they're saying because I can read it much better then I can understand it spoken. It's pretty different from any other language I learnt.

Anyway that's my thoughts for now, I also got to try some Kimchi and it was awesome!

ooh and i can watch Pro BW at normal times now : }
