First, what I think is an immature magpie, the first I have ever seen.
As I climbed up Chungdae mountain, I saw some university-aged men heading down with farm tools in their hands. I was surprised until I saw the taped off area at the peak.
At first, I thought they were digging to pour concrete or something construction-related.
However, seeing brushes in their hands made me rethink things.
I wonder what else they will find and what made them decide to search there in the first place. I guess Gangwon was one big battlefield so they could conceivably dig anywhere.
Hi Brian. I am thinking of renewing my EPIK contract in Gangwon do and moving to Sokcho. I have visited several times and I really like it there. Is it as good to live in though. I am not bothered about night life. Where in the city to the majority of teachers live? How far by bus is the beach from you for example. I just want to know if you think it s good place to live in gangwon. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnon,
ReplyDeleteI like it here.
As an EPIK teacher, you would likely be interested in the local KOTESOL group and many of it's members are EPIK.
I don't know where the majority of teacher live, but there seem to be a lot of us near Expo Park, in the Bu-Yeong Apartment complex.
I am a thirty minute walk from a beach or a 4 minute cab ride or 15 minutes or so by bus-&-walking. There are a LOT of beaches here and none are far away.
Hope that helps.
G'Brian
