Posted: Thu Nov 13, 2008 12:47 am Post subject: Mexican themed fundraiser in Suwon |
|
|
If anybody is interested there will be a Mexican themed Fiesta night in NowBar Suwon, Yongtong next saturday night, starting at 6pm. The event is being held to raise funds for the family of a recently deceased English teacher named Jorge Greenwood in effort to cover the cost of repatriating his body back to the US.
I'm not sure how much money they need to raise but I understand that repatriation alone typically costs upwards of ten thousand U.S. dollars.
Even if you've never met Jorge please come and enjoy some Mexican spice on a cold winters night. For newbies this should be a great opportunity to meet other fellow expats here in Suwon.
Thanks,
Blade.

Take a taxi to homeplus and when you get out of the taxi walk around the left hand side of the Homeplus building. Now walk about three blocks and then turn left and walk straight until you reach a street with an open courtyard with plenty bars and restaurants. Turn right on this street and walk about a further half block. Now bar is on the second floor on your right.
Sorry it's been a while since I was there so my directions are a little be sketchy but maybe somebody else here can help you. |

Yes Wylies, if you are on the "backside" of homeplus, it's about a block away (100-150) if you are on the front side (by the main road) its a block + the size of homeplus away. |
