I have been reading up about Yeosu on here and on various blogs. It sounds like a really good deal and Yeosu sounds a really nice place but now I am hearing that it is really hard to get a PS job down there and it is competitive - Is this true?

And can anyone recommend a medium sized city similar to Yeosu that is by the sea? I fancy life on the beach for my next contract! Laughing

I would try for Busan but knowing EPIK - They will end up placing me in some two bob village 2 hours away from Busan! Evil or Very Mad

Don't go for Sokcho. I've never lived there, but I visited for a weekend one summer. They put up buoys and you can only swim in those areas, which resulted in what I call "human soup." Tried to swim outside the buoys and a pink speedo-clad lifeguard swiftly blew his whistle at me and a few renegade Koreans.

Didn't have much fun trying to swim while also dodging college kids in flotation devices and ice cream bars floating in the water.

But hey, I think I was the best swimmer on the beach...which is something I can't normally say for myself.

Gawww... I joined the NAVY to be near the beach. Laughing

It worked too. Bermuda, Playa de Luz, Spain, Hawaii, Florida, Cuba, Puerto Rico. All sweet memories.

Here's one of my tributes to it:
