All that is left is for me to buy a ticket! My plan is leave SFO on Sept. 20th and arrive in Incheon, South Korea Sept. 21st. That leaves me with 26 days to pack a years worth of everything possible I need/want, can not get in Korea, and can fit in 2 suitcases. To be honest, I am the worst packer. I have an extreme attachment to my clothing and fashion is pretty important to me. I have been doing lots of Korean fashion studying and I am so excited to expand my closet. A few important things that I have read to bring to Korea are:
- Toothpaste- the one there does not taste very good
- 2 set of a twin bedding set- they do not have fitted sheets
- Full sized towels- the towels there are thin and hand sized
- Deodorant- Koreans do not smell and it is extremely expensive there
- Razors- Koreans are not hairy and have weak razors
- Tampons- They are not as common as pads
- Spices- everything other than salt and pepper is hard to find.
