Cymru, Dabochi and 10p Coffee

Btw, Cymru does rhyme in the title.

So, pretty much been telling a lot of people this uninteresting story about how there is this food called dakbocki which sounds very similar to dabochi, the welsh for Good bye (I hope). No one really gets it. Or cares. So dakbocki is this spicy tube of rice, stogged up so much that it’s solid. It’s ok, but I wouldn’t write home about it. Although technically I am. Oh and they also have fried chickan here which tastes just like friend chickan does and has the same effect on my bowels that fried chickan does. So I’m feeling right at home.

Was practicing speaking some Korean but my accent sucked. I Joked around saying that if I put on a strong welsh accent (yeah I know, it’s already pretty strong right) then my pronunciation would be better. I did it. It was better.  I should probably whack it out in class (the accent that is), there was a gasp of sheer delight (my interpretation of events) when I informed my fellow students that I was from Wales. I thought best not to confuse them with that near to malarkey.

So yeah, a small cup of coffee in the Uni is only 150 won which is about 10p! By no means is it the best coffee ever, but certainly drinkable and for 10p everyone’s a winner. Also had to purchase a notepad today as on the cover it said (copied EXACTLY) ‘I want for a stroll along the public garden Some sunny, warm spots had fresh young glass coming up already The singing of birds seems to foretell the coming of happy dream’. If those are not words to live by daily, then I’m really not sure what are.
