    Hey Mel, I was just wondering about which legal documents you need before entering the country.

      Amaira 蕫思成 I'm going to Yonsei University in seoul! They've got a really good program with my university here in America and I know that they've got really good programs for international students and offer a lot of guidance and support to their exchange students! I'm super nervous to travel that far away from home and be on my own in a foreign country but I definitely think it'll be worth it you definitely should go for it!

    I just found your channel a few days ago and THANK YOU so much for posting this! We're waiting on a job offer for a contractor's job in Waegwan in a few weeks...needed this big time! We're moving with three children though (visited for a few months back in 2011, LOVE IT.)

    • @TerrellHarkness
      @TerrellHarkness 8 лет назад +1

      Cassidy Sloan I worked in Waegwan back in 2014. If you are thinking of living there, very rural and quiet. If you are looking for a bit more city life, Daegu is 30 minutes by car. I lived in Daegu, near the Opera House and it was great. Large American community around with the military installations. Enjoy!

    • @SloansAbroad
      @SloansAbroad 8 лет назад +1

      Thanks! I visited for two months a few years ago and got to explore Daegu as well as Waegwan. It's such an amazing place. It's been a dream of mine to move there. I love it so much. :)

  • @annawarren1345

    What happens when you run out of the things? Like hair products, makeup, toothpaste and feminine products?? do you order them online from like.. Amazon if you can't find them in Korea?? I'm sorry if it sounds stupid..

    • @ebcutiepie
      @ebcutiepie 7 лет назад +12

      I'd have family and friends send them to me or order from amazon.

  • @taylerwithane
    @taylerwithane 8 лет назад +36

    Hey Mel! I'm about to join EPIK for the Spring 2017 intake and I was wondering about when you say to bring sheets, what size bed do they typically provide you with so I know what size to get?

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад +19

      my bed looks like a twin but it is actually sliiiigtly larger than a twin. I'd bring full sheets just in case you're bed is a bit larger - typically they're a twin or full size. so with full sheets you'll be covered either way!

    • @taylerwithane

    Thank you for this! Moving to Korea in just under a month and I'm struggling with packing.
    I'm tight for space, so I might have to buy my bed sheets from IKEA in Seoul and I was gonna skip on the winter boots until you mentioned it!

  • @ZeppelinGirl7
    @ZeppelinGirl7 8 лет назад +5

    Might be a silly question but do they have coconut oil over there? I use the oil to make natural remedies for deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, moisturiser and toothpaste (so convenient, you can seriously use this stuff for everything). Also, an addition to your comment about feminine hygiene products, I certainly reccomend getting a reusable cup (such as the "Diva Cup"), it produces no paper or plastic waste and is super efficient for travelling or living overseas (I am currently teaching in Germany and they seem to prefer pads or or tiny @$$ tampons). They last over 8 hours too! I swear I'm not a spokesperson or anything but the reusable cups are awesome! Thanks for the helpful video!

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад +2

      they do have coconut oil, I just recently found this out lol. & I've heard of diva cups before but have been a little nervous to try it haha I just might have to though! thanks for the suggestion :)

    • @delireform
      @delireform 8 лет назад

      Actually, we have menstrual cups in Germany, too! They're kind of... alternative I guess? They're definitely not mainstream, haha.
      I got my cups online, but I think you can also get them from the pharmacy. Can you get them at the supermarket where you're from?

Now I am revisiting that dream once more and not trying to let the feeling of it being too late for me freak me out. Anyways, thanks for the great videos!

      Powerful Piccolo :D hello I know Japanese French English and Korean
      When I lived in japan and new I was going to move to Korea I actually took classes and paid for them
      But I recommend to learn the Hangul alphabet first and get it memorised down because this will help you though out your time while learning Korea ... then you start with the basics by hello goodbye thank you yes no how are you I'm fine I'm not ok I am going bad counting ....
      then start with directions I did directions because I get lost very easily ... so I needed this badly but mostly look at sayings to how you get around Korea ...
      I also do foods ordering foods shopping ... then family and friends ...
      slowly learn them tho I did about 1 week on each topic .... and I memorised the Hangul alphabet in about 3-4 days ...
      Just start with the main things then slowly get into the slang to body parts to calling to other stuff like that

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад

      thanks! no, detergent isn't expensive - comparable to what it is in America. And no, the apartment doesn't come with pots and pans, you have to buy them.

    Hello :D I just moved to Korea like 7 months ago .... I already had my home ready but no bed sheets , decor , bedding , pillows and etc so I actually buy them in boxes and shipped them to my house aka my condo .... and I told my land lord can she put it in my building or store them somewhere till I get there ... she was very kind and Store them in a safe place ... but if you do want to bring a lot of stuff ship even tho it's expensive it's better then bring 10 suitcases of stuff in 1 flight I mean imagine carrying them in and out the airport xD

    I love your videos btw :)

    Hey Mel ! is it easy to get a job in korea if you don´t have an undergraduate degree ? could you be an epik teacher if you are not a native from USA but have a nice score on your TOEFL?

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад +1

      EPIK requires a bachelor degree so without one I don't think so but maybe, I'd so some research!

    Are you planning on staying for 3rd year or are you going back to the states? If you're going back would you ever teach again in Korea?

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад

      I'll be going back to the States and maybe I'd teach again here, at this point I can't see it but never say never.

    Hi! I was wondering if there was a way for family members or friends to send stuff, like packages, over there?

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад +1

      yep! shipping costs are just really expensive.

    • @alliahperanteau2049
      @alliahperanteau2049 8 лет назад

      Okay cokey! Thanks! Would you be able to provide an estimate? And is there, like, a p.o. box, or how does that work? :)

    It seems like a lot to pack in luggage. Did you have your family ship you any of this stuff once you got there? If so, how did it work out for you? Is postal packages easy to send and receive in S. Korea?

    • @MelodyAlisa
      @MelodyAlisa  8 лет назад +1

      I was able to fit it all but for certain things - the make up, tampons, hair products - when I did run out (maybe 6/8+ months later) my family did send me more. & yep, I'm able to get packages really easily but the shipping costs are really expensive.
