Today I was taking a look at housing rentals in the Toronto area and it seems that about 95% of the ones that I’m interested in require references. Wondering how difficult it will be to get a home without references – I’ve been living overseas for almost 15 years and don’t have any.
Not every listing but about half of them require proof of employment -that also will be difficult to provide considering I’m going to be looking for a house the day after I land and not have a job. Hopefully I can persuade them with proof of funds, i.e. a bank statement. Otherwise we could end up living on a park bench.
Lunch in Gwangju, 2009 – all this cost about $20 (3 main dishes) and two big guys couldn’t finish it all.
Just started thinking about food since it’s lunch time here. Here in Korea I don’t even think twice about eating out. It’s so easy to get a good meal for less than $7 and probably closer to $4.5 – $5 as long as your willing to eat Korean food. One can even go as low as $1.50 and have a roll of kimbap, but I don’t find that particularly tasty though some people do.
Good examples of food that one can get for less than $7 and include a number of side dishes include:
There are of course many more to choose from at this price point. If i upped the price to about $10 then I could add a ton more. And don’t forget this is the total you pay, there is no added tax and none of that insanely stupid North American practice of tipping. Really eating out in Korea is a pleasure and incredibly cheap.
Great video about Seoul and technology. I am so going to miss everything in this video. Though I must say I haven’t yet seen the cafe with the robot waiters.
