|
|
Hi,
I've just arrived in Seoul on Saturday to teach in a school in Wolgok, 2 other foreign teachers are also there, both Americans, and much as they are very nice, I'd really like to meet up with some Brits soon, am missing the British banter and could do with some variety of friends!
Anyone out there new in Seoul too and would like to meet up to discover the city with together??
Thanks!! |

I'll try this again since it seems my post was gobbled up somehow.
I'm not new into Korea (been here for about 16 months now), nor do I live in Seoul (I live in Suwon) but I am certainly a Brit (born just outside of Manchester), and while I no longer have the accent (I lived in Canada for about 13 years), I can throw the English banter around quite well. If you're interested in having a non-Seoul living, non-newbie Brit along for any get-togethers, let me know!

Well you are Northern Scum like the rest of us so it should be ok, albeit a but confusing with your funky Manadian accent. |

Well, atleast with the funky accent, I can be the evening's entertainment. What with me participating in the English discussions but peppering it with a few "eh's", "aboot's" and "hosers". Should be a blast! |
