Mokpo

I like being able to say that yesterday I moved across the country. Which I did, but I have helped friends with moves across town in the States which took longer, driving included.

So basically, I've moved from the East coast of southern South Korea to the west coast. Both are port cities, but while Gwangyang was developing and mostly based around POSCO, Mokpo is bigger and an older city. For folks who want to see/read more:

I'm going to venture out and see if I can find a market nearby. I think I'm VERY close to the Jayu Market, which means I'll get to see old ladies selling vegetables out of plastic bowls on the street, which I LOVE. Seriously. The bowls of seafood kind of sketch me out, but I'm a big whiny baby who likes her animal products safely behind plastic, thankyouverymuch.
