Hi Guys,

As I'm preparing to leave for Korea next week, I'm wondering what you guys miss most about home?

I'm definitely preparing to spend as much time with my friends and family (as I believe I will miss them the most). My guess is everything else is negotiable (i.e. I can always get a new camera, a new phone plan, new place to stay, etc.).

Thanks

i think being asian in america was awesome because you were "exotic" or unique to them, but i came here and so many koreans lol

i miss the chinese buffets that cost like 10 dollars and had all you can eat crab legs lol

My husband said drive-thru.
Grass. Cherry trees. Our car. Walmart.

Food, family/friends and shopping. Not necessarily in that order.

I don't miss the daily grind. Unless you make a solidly middle class income and live like a working class hero, its very difficult to save money in America. This depends on where you live but by and large its difficult. You work so hard and seem to get so little benefit in return.
