What we can buy for under $25!

Our Tuesday, summed up by expenses:

• two hair cuts (and yes, they actually look good)- 12000 won (about $10)
  

• at a small restaurant off the beaten path there is a plain looking restaurant/house where a korean couple makes the most delicious food. Brett discovered it a week ago when eating with his Korean friend. It is now my favourite place to eat. We had two bowls of bibimbap made with freshly grown veggies (right from their garden), and served with 8 side dishes and a massive bowl of kimchi stew. They even gave us a free sweet drink made of rice!- 10 000 won (about $8)

• 20 giggling 3 year olds, all lined up wearing the same track suit and waiting for the same school bus, excitedly saying "hello" because they don't know any other English words, and then screaming with delight when I say "hello" back (repeated about 8 times, even after I was so far away that I had to yell "heeellllooo!")- FREE

• a large plate of noodles in spicy red sauce, and a huge bowl of Japanese style soup shared for dinner at the restaurant beside our school- 4000 won (about $3.50)

Total- $21.50
