You might wonder why I have been quiet last few weeks. Don’t worry I am not sick. ^_^ I went back to Sydney for 10 days to catch up with friends and family. I was excited that the weather was going to be nice and cool and a welcome relief from the Singapore humidity. Well, it wasn’t cool, it was freezing! While I was there, Sydney had two of the coldest mornings in 60 years! I must admit it’s not as cold as Korean winter but I don’t think Sydney houses are built for cold winter mornings. Having said that, I still enjoyed some beautiful sunny afternoons.
While I was Sydney, I managed to eat more Korean food than ever as it is so popular there now. It’s also quite cheap as the meat is only A$12 per kg. So as soon I landed my brother drove me straight to a Korean BBQ restaurant.
Koreans seemed to be opening business everywhere in Sydney. When I first moved from Seoul to Sydney, there were hardly any Korean shops but now they’re are almost on every corner. Korean restaurants, hairdressers, butchers and clothing shops seem to be everywhere. One of the suburbs called Strathfield is now filled with 80% of Korean shops and business and you walk around thinking that you are back in Korea.
