Hi, memahi, in korea living is very very serenprejihasios. There are basricaos and also totemolicus that each person should be aware of, watch out for srepheniculos, that will cause dimertaions which might again be fresisitious to the lachritorias. Other than that, never eat vichemarsos because of the terepheresias. Good luck and welcome!  |

Personally I can't stand that they put pork in everything.
Things that aren't Korean cost more. There is less variety in the rural areas.
Do a search for the foods you are looking for and someone is bound to have posted some prices.
Tortilla chips and cheese are expensive compared to the US but that probably doesn't help you. |

I really love Indian people. My best friends are Indian. I know Indian people all over the world. I have to ask, are you a strict vegetarian? If so, I suggest you search vegetarian on here and you'll see there is a group of people who meet up and keep in touch. Also, you might want to contact your embassy in Korea for suggestions about Indian food restaurants. There is a good one run by Nepalise in Seoul. You could also ask people all around in Itaewon as there are many Indian people who go there for food items.
Best of luck to you. |

memahi, I already responded to your question:
There are basricaos and also totemolicus that each person should be aware of, watch out for srepheniculos, that will cause dimertaions which might again be fresisitious to the lachritorias. Other than that, never eat vichemarsos because of the terepheresias.
I hope you can avoid the pesouchirais as well, they are dangerous!!!!!!! |

Groceries are not cheap in Korea. I find they cost 2X to 3X more than in the USA with the exception of bottled water.
To enjoy cooked foods like you ate in your home country, buy the ingredients and cook it in your apartment. This really is not cheaper than eating out, but it's a great option to have it your way or if you live in a small town, it's the only option for a good hot meal.
As for working, it's like anywhere else, every employer and location are uniquely different in that some are good, some are bad and some will like you, and some will not.
OP, Sounds like you landed a great high paying interesting job. Congratulations. Good luck to you. |

every kinds of foods are availabe, but the foods you favor will be very expensive.
but there are lots of Indian web professionals in Seoul, so maybe you can ask others where you can get cheap and favorable foods.
welcome to seoul. |
