Have you thought about Osan?

Its right on the beach! Beautiful white sand, jumping dolphins, and the nite life. Wow. I can't even begin to describe.

On weekends, sometimes, when i leave my apartment, i may even go to the Lotte mart, to buy some banana's instead of picking them off the trees!!!

Osan, the tropical mecca of the world.

Here's a hint: do the research, then decide for yourself where you want to live, like a normal adult would, instead of asking a bunch of strangers on the internet.

Dont worry Lauren. Getting your feet wet on this board might seem a bit daunting but give it time & you will in fact get good support & advice. The suggestions above to do your research & develop a firmer idea what youre looking for are correct.

Have you read through all the FAQs? Thats a good starting point & will also attune you to the flavor of discussion here. Naive or ill-thought-out questions will draw frivolous answers. Admit it -- your original post on this thread sounds a bit like youre seeking a holiday destination!

Welcome to the fray & dont take it overseriously. Best of luck.

(By the way, thanks Osangrrl! I quit my job, packed my speedos, & I'm like moving there tomorrow. Can you recommend a good surfboard shop?)
