after skipping out on the parade, camille (another teacher at the school) and i decided to walk around itaewon for some shopping. itaewon has a few shops that specialize in importing some creature comforts from back home, like nyquil and dryer sheets.

we first stopped where i could get some nyquil. turns out i'm pretty much like every other foreigner who comes here. i got sick. nothing too bad, just lots of congestion, and the nyquil knock off really helps me get some more rest.

then, off to an english bookstore. yay!. yes, i brought a book, and have a handful more prepped for shipping, but the one book i brought (as fascinating as it is). . . just isn't holding my attention. so some more fiction for me please!

last stop, a market that we only heard about. camille knew the subway stop, but we knew nothing else. we ran into another foreigner who kept a small journal detailing where to get and find things. she pointed us in the right direction. (thank you!)
