Hi,

I know homesickness has been done to death on these boards and i've read the posts.

I've been feeling pretty down recently (3month culture shock period may be hitting)... this accounts to no friends yet and exhaustion combined with lots of other things. but i'm turning this attitude around!

I haven't met any other aussies yet, so this might be stupid, but i was just wondering if there were any aussies or ANYONE really (who is equally feeling like a new friend) in Gangnam who would like to meet up one day for a chat?

a good place to meet people in a similar boat is a facebook group dedicated to whatever your neighborhood is... in this case just search for gangnam

Why aussies? I'm an aussie and I always enjoyed making friends with peeps from other English speaking countries as well as Koreans. I'm in Busan so I can't meet but I do know Aussies in Seoul from when i lived there but I'm sure it would be easy to meet others. But we're not really that much different from Americans apart from our sporting interests. Most of my close friends are Americans.
