So, It's the 30th July and I have around 3 weeks till I hang up my boots and head for somewhere I know very little about......
Seoul, South Korea.
Before I signed the contract and began researching South Korea's capital, I knew nothing.
To me it was the birth place of Tottenham Hotspur left back, Young-Po-Lee. Still with football in mind, there was a very successful FIFA World Cup held there in 2002 - that's it! I KNOW nothing - And that's why I'm going there!! To explore...... to find out.
I'm at the thinking stage of "What shall I take?? what do I REALLY need??" One thing that keeps cropping up in tips here and there is the lack of b-o-drant in Korea.... Which is a little worrying considering the heat and humidity at times..... so I'm preparing for a lot of smelly people, but i'm sure it will be a unique smell and one that I will slowly begin to admire and accept as apart of my experience!!! (I wonder??)
I have also been advised to take a 'fitted bed sheet'!! (Ok then)
Music!!! now for me this is going to be my first goal when I land in Seoul. I'm taking my laptop, which obviously has all i need in terms of beats and lyrics. BUT, the speakers on this bad boy aren't anything to whisper about!! Therefore, I will be heading straight to the Techno markets to get myself some speakers of some sort!!
But that's jumping the gun - I still have 3 weeks to learn some English teaching techniques, say my goodbyes, shave my beard and of course take some deep breaths.........................
