Interesting differences!

So this week has been good, overcast but still HOT and HUMID! It kills me! I don't know how Koreans do it! Teaching has been going well. The dinner with my adults class on Monday was very fun too! Last night for the opening question in my adults class, we shared out testimonies! It was wonderful. Even though it was a struggle sometimes, everyone enjoyed it!

Since being in Korea I have observed some interesting differences! One of them is that there are no ovens! They only cook on propane stoves and they use a lot of oil! There are no pale blondes, so I always get stared at or touched! Also, there are no trash cans or public restrooms around the city. So if we buy a coffee or ice cream on our walks, we carry the garbage the rest of the walk until our apartment or the church. At the subway stations you have to buy toilet paper before going in and using the restroom and half of the stalls have squatty potties instead of toilets! And my favorite one is that there are no shower curtains so the water goes everywhere on the floor! But there is a drain in the middle of the bathroom floor. They also eat specially raised dog here too (not pet dogs) but still different! Lastly, there are no dryers or fabric softener! We hang dry our clothes all old school like. I like these interesting cultural experiences!
