Life in South Korea

"If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level."

— Bruce Lee

Buddhist Temple in Yongin, Gyeongi-do

Last weekend I visited a Buddhist Temple in Yongjin. It was nice to get away from the city and check out other areas of Korea for once.

Big Buddha Head

Shrooms

These are tiles with prayers written on them by people from all over the world (Notice the different languages). They will replace old roof tiles.

Dragon

Rabbit

Guard in front of one of the temples

Another guard

Water from a mountain spring it was cold and refreshing

QuestionHi, I read your answer to your previous question post, and I was wondering.. before moving to South Korea, did you know anyone? And do you have foreign friends who work in Korea but are not teachers? Anwser

Yes, before I came I knew a few friends out here that I met back in the States. I’m Korean American, so I also have some family out here as well. Most of the foreigners I know are teachers, but I do have some friends pursuing other business ventures out here.

QuestionHello. I just wanted to know cuz I'm thinking of applying to teach in Korea with my 2 year of university diploma. But I'm just wondering, would a 1,300,000 won salary be sufficient expenses-wise? Minus residence. Anwser

Well, it all depends on your lifestyle. If you plan to save any money, then you will have to live more on the conservative side. However, if you don’t care about saving, then you should be able to have a lot of fun with that amount, as long as your not getting bottle and table service at clubs every weekend you will be fine.

Salt and Butter Restaurant

My friend Sohl opened his Burger, Salad, and Pasta restaurant called Salt and Butter. I went to go try and his food, and help promote a little bit outside. The food is BOMB, he definitely knows his shit. The burgers are the best I’ve had in Seoul, all my people in Korea check it out for yourself, you won’t be disappointed. Prices are very reasonable, as well.
