I have been here in Australia for 2years. and Im a Korean. I also feel same like what u said. sometimes Im so hungry especially early morning. but there is no delivery service at midnight. So I would like to choose Seoul city system that I can eat everything in anywhere and anytime.^^
Hi you two! I just discovered you and I adore your videos.To answer your question, I don't have to choose because I'm leaving in the perfect city, where the balance between history, art, nature and "city convenience" is excellent.It's in Québec city, Canada of course, the oldest city in north america :) I don't have a car, I do everything on foot or bus and I can take a walk in a forest anytime I want. It's a little bit different culturally from the rest of Canada but in general, you have basically the same feel of relaxation, calm and beauty. And, we speak french!!! Yes, I know it's strange for outsiders ;) !!! So that's it! I'm really happy here, but I think I have a strong fascination for Korea and I want to go there in the future. Thank you very much for all the informations you give, it's very interresting and helpful! Please pardon my english, like I said, I speak french I'm a "québécoise" :D
You go through different cycles in your life. When you are young, single or newlywed like yourselves, it's important to have that urban life because it's how you discover things (like that area Kyuho had never been to.). It also makes for easy walkability, and if you have bikes/bike lanes (urban biking movement) and good transportation system it's a no brainer. You can always rent a car if you have to go out to visit grandpa or go with your parents, like you've done. If you are going on a weekend get away to another area like the seaside, you can take a train or plane, right? Most parents want a backyard for their kids, and a bit more space once they've become established, but when the kids are off on their own, the empty nesters are opting back for downsizing and urban living like they did when they were young newlyweds. (at least they can until they get so aged they might have to live with their kids, etc. ) The cycles of life and how we live. My husband and I have the best, we own a 3 bedroom bungalow in the City close to a hipster neighborhood here in Chicago. We have a small backyard, which is perfect because we are approaching our 60's so it's still not too much for us. We are talking of moving to a smaller condo in a few years. No kids/grandkids. No dogs, 2 cats.
I love big cities and right now I work in Düsseldorf, but in the evening I return to my parents house, it's in a really small village. We have our own backyard with a lot of beautiful trees and flowers. It's so lovly!! Nature is incredible! but it's the best to have both.
I've grown up in a valley in Southern California with lots of hills, mountains, and open space, which is great, but it's impossible to get anywhere quickly without a car! I'm ready to move to the city, haha. :D Also, Kyuho's hair is on point lol.
+vivaLucci Although I have always loved nature growing up, I also got annoyed with how long it took to get anywhere in more rural areas, and I couldn't wait to move to a big city when I was in my early 20's :)
+vivaLucci When I lived in Georgia it would literally take a hour to a hour and a half to get to the mall... You could drive on the same long dirt road lined with trees forever TT Yea its really pretty and freeing until you need to be somewhere on short notice AND in a timely fashion! lol
Loved this couple,this is my first time on this site.but enjoy watching my girlfriend live in Nova Scotia.i sacrifice city living I love nature and fresh air peace and quiet living.God bless you both.
세라 누나, 규호 형 :D I'm Jamie ! Long time no see !! How y'll doing?? Looks like you guys are safely back in Korea !! Ive been real busy since my school started a few weeks ago. I came back to Tennessee for my school after spending the whole summer in Korea. It was def worth it. I hope y'all are not too tired from jet lag !! About the question, I'd rather choose Korea than Canada or America. It's not because I dislike them. I do like living in America. However, I grew up in Korea, so everything is just more convenient and familiar to me. If I grew up in America, I would choose it over Korea. It's just the matter of each person's preference. They are equally lovely and beautiful in different ways. (but I do enjoy nature here, I can go jump off the cliffs and go waterrafting and such.) The most important thing is more of your way of thinking. Some people can be happy living in Africa. On the other hand, there are still people who are unsatisfied with their lives even though they literally have everything. ! I know it's a bit off the topic and not the exact answer that you'd expect, but it's true ! so I hope y'all are very satisfied with what you've got in Korea !!! Love y'all
Well I lived in both. And I'm so so much happier with nature and my big space. I don't care I have to drive at least 15 minutes to go somewhere . I love big house , garden having my own space. Birds make me up morning with their songs ! What could I ask more ? :D
+ayse aicha I definitely need to spend time in nature to recharge from city life. I love waking up in the morning and sitting on the deck every morning at my parents' house in Canada while listening to the birds sing~
Great lunch box idea! :D Hope you guys are enjoying your time back in Korea x I lived and worked in Cheongju for a year and enjoyed my time there but I really loved coming back home to Melbourne, Australia.
Ahhhhhh I'm so jealous but happy for you guys that you went back to Nova Scotia for the summer break!!!!!!!!! Loved watching the videos~ Hilarious that you two miss nature all ready. Two peas in a pod :)
Like here in Portugal, we have like the centre of the city and the rest is calm, not busy. But the city centers aren't like Seoul. We have a few variety of stores in a reasonable quantity. Like in the US and in Seoul, from what I've seen in vlogs, if you want to eat something korean you search for a korean products market. Here in Portugal, where I live we only have portuguese stores with portuguese products or worlwide know products. I want to buy foreign products but it is impossible. Seoul was everything in every corner and is one of the most busiest cities. I would choose Seoul for that reason. (A little late but that is OK, right? XD)
I feel the same as Kyuho, right now I live in the Washington DC area and I love the convenience of having so many things at my fingertips. Like great restaurants, food trucks, entertainment etc. As I get older I would like to be able to live a more quite lifestyle. If only we could have it all, lol. Love your vlogs
Thanks to you guys for capturing these briar idyl images of nature and sharing it with us. I am truly grateful to be able to see it. Next step is to actually see and experience it all in the flesh instead of via phone. 👍🏿
I live in Canada...but in the prairies, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. So everything is VERY spread out. I love the summer months and fall. The sky is beautiful and I don't mind driving where I need to then but I hate winter driving. We get so much snow!! I think I would prefer a compact city environment then. Or just live somewhere warm during the winter months. I wouldn't mind having summer and winter homes so I never have to deal with cold or snow unless I purposely want to go snowboarding...which living on the prairies doesn't help much either.
The thing about Seoul is you can always take the metro to the suburbs where there is a lot of open space. So for me its like the best of both worlds there is convenience and public transportation and when you want open space and nature close by
ah I just moved to Seoul and it's so different from my home. I lived in the country so I was very used to nature. Now there's so many people and I live on the 20th floor of a building~~
well my city in Colombia it's a little same that Canada. We have a lot of space, big houses and green areas but the stores close at 6 or 8 depend of the location. So... i think i dont need 24/7 store but i will miss green areas and big spaces :)
I'm a born and bred city slicker so I'd have to say the city for me... but I'd definitely need little trips and holidays to the country - if only just to maintain sanity. I think I'm like Kyu-ho, city while I'm young and the country when I'm older!
This really made me appreciate where i live and i think i've actually taken it for granted :'D i'm still with my parents and live in a nice big house is a suburb surrounded by parks and there are convenient cafe's and other places to order/buy food and grocery stores really nearby. The beach is also just a few min away from where i live. And whenever i want to experience the bustling city i just need to catch the train (a short distance away) that will take me there in 25 min. I like the idea of living in seoul, however i'm not sure if i'd wanna live there for more then just a few years, because i do appreciate nature very much. South Korea is definitely an amazing place to travel to though and i can't wait to in the future! I live in Australia :)
I have just recently got back from Seoul, visiting my little sister. She took me to Tongin market but we didn't have the Dosirak. We had this fried tteokbokki at one of the stall. It was different with other tteokbokki, this one was fried with a little oil, so that the red sauce becomes dry. I personally prefer this kind of tteokbokki, but I don't think this can be found easily. You should try that tteokbokki! I kinda wished to bump into you guys when I was in Korea lol
I wish we had those swinging leg excising machine thingys at 7:23 in Canada. I always see them in movies and I think if those were at the park near my house, I'd go play on them everyday lol
I was thinking the same as kyuho, young in the city but older in the country . I live in a neighborhood that's kind of suburban so I'd have to go with natures way . :b Sorry Manhattan , I love you but
I've lived in a very busy city in New Jersey, then outside of Chicago (suburb), in the countryside of NE Oklahoma and finally in Florida (north of Orlando). Our home now backs up to a lake, so we see lots of birds, squirrels, etc. I think having a view of the lake is my fav - very peaceful. Love your vlog and so glad you had a great vacation in Canada. :))
I have lived in both Taiwan (compact city and convenient, but smaller and much busier/noisier) and New Jersey (open and spacious, and horrible public transportation), so I can understand how you guys are torn between both. Personally though, the United States is a bit more nostalgic for me, because I grew up there. For me it was that nostalgic value for me with the backyard and open space where I get to explore and find deer in my backyard and find a spring/hiking trail in my own neighborhood. I guess you guys just have to find that one special thing that will ultimately differentiate which type of place you want to be in. Best of luck, and I love your videos as always!
I need both. Currently i live in a City which is still a village compared to Seoul haha but i would rather live in a house with a nice garden in front or something.
In Las Vegas everything is pretty much 24 hours too , and majority of people live in houses with yards . In my neighborhood I live close to a shopping center too so I can walk there within 5 minutes for groceries , coffee shop , resturants , it's pretty convenient but not as much as Korea
Large open space sounds soooo nice especially when you start having children. I'm not even that old but I love having nature and a backyard near me. I wish houses were more affordable cause I would definitely own one now with a backyard.
Where you able to keep the food that you didn't eat? Also from another video. I love you cat. Mine like plastic shopping bags too :) and she was a cutie. talking too that was so cute.
I live in a village in Canada (close to a city thank god!) and I think I prefer this to big cities like Montreal because it is really relaxing and even though we don't have public transport and I have to take my car to go everywhere I like this more than having to take a bus with people that I don't know. Also I looove silence and I'm telling you, driving in the countryside and seeing cows, horses and sometimes deers is really nice and relaxing before going to school ^^
Hey~ So I'm from Berlin in Germany.... Berlin is a big city but not as big or crowded as Seoul but I do like it that you can go anywhere with the public transportation system (even if it does not work every time though -.-) But to relax properly I'll often go to my mum's house which is an hour from Berlin in the Spreewald where it's really quiet and the stores close at 8 pm and on saturdays at 4pm and that's really nice for a week or two X3
+2hearts1seoul indeed it is!- the perfect combination of forest, lakes and city x3 the thing is that the transportation system outside of Berlin is not that good (one bus per hour or longer) and it is also very expensive (and the price is rising) so that you would need a car to get fast and cheap to your destination... but lucky enough Berlin is a very green city that's what I love the most about Berlin - and thank you so much for the nice answer! 🙈
We're torn too. We love living in Tokyo but we made the decision to live on the outskirts so we could get a bigger place for the same cost as a shoebox apartment in the centre of town. It's still convenient enough for us where we live and we can still easily travel to the city whenever we want.
네 그럼요. 어릴 적엔 서울에 화려함이나 왠지 큰도시에서 일을 해야 큰일 하는 것 같다는 생각에 사로잡혀 있던 거 같아요. 그래서 저와 맞지도 않는 직업을 억지로 붙잡고 매달렸으니까요. 유통회사 영업지원팀에서 일을 했는데 유통이라는 일이 사람 사귀는 일이더라구요. 그런데 그게 제 천성과 너무 맞지도 않고 보수는 적어서 서울의 높은 물가를 생각하면 미래가 갑갑했습니다. 그렇게 미래가 보이지 않는 생활에 지쳐갈 때쯤 저 스스로에 대해서 심각하게 고민했었고 생각을 바꾸고 시선을 넓혀보니 기능인으로 사는 것도 나쁘지 않다고 여겨졌습니다. 정장입고 출퇴근 하던 생활에서 작업복을 입고 새로운 직업교육을 받고 산업현장에서 용접공으로 새삶을 시작했습니다. 이제 11년차 되어가구요. 3D 업종입니다. 위험하고, 더럽고, 까다로운 일이지만 정직하게 땀흘린만큼 벌고 있어요. 사실 여름엔 숨쉬기 힘들 정도로 덥습니다. 산업용 마스크, 귀마개, 안전모, 전신을 덥는 두꺼운 용접복, 무거운 안전화, 보안경 등의 안전 보호구로 몸의 일부분도 노출시키지 않아요. 그리고 일 외적인 부분, 가끔 일년에 한, 두번 서울에 가면 과거에 내가 이 정신 사나운 곳에서 어떻게 5년이나 살았을까 싶은 생각이 들어요. 어떤 사람들은 지방 소도시는 무덤같이 조용하다고 푸념도 하지만 저는 그게 더 좋더라구요. 주말엔 등산을 겸한 다른 고장 여행하기 좋구요. 서울은 주말에 고속도로 막히는 거 겁나 짜증나잖아요. 전,월세 부담이 훨씬 적으니까 제 아파트도 장만했구요. 지방산단은 출퇴근이 불편해서 거의 모든 직장인이 자가용가 있구요. 같은 돈을 번다면 더 너른 편한집과 여유를 주는 건 사실이죠. 일년에 한, 두번 울 각시랑 수도권 산으로 등산가면서 서울 구경을 가는데 둘이 그래요. 와 이런 신기한 거도 있어 하면서 웃다가 우리 이제 촌사람 다 됐다고 키득거려요. 서울의 문명을 포기하고 천천히 사는 삶을 선택했다고 할까요. 울 각시랑 저는 만족하고 있어요. 단, 울 각시가 저와 취미가 같고 자연을 즐기는 것을 좋아해서 적응하기 쉬웠던 거 같아요.
I'm living in Canada for 1 and a half years and going back to Korea next year. Canada is a beautiful country. People are very nice. But sometimes I feel boring. Big cities in Korea are busy and crowded. But on the other hand, it is fun, dynamic and convenient. Also you can go anywhere cheaply and have good chances to learn many things. Now I really enjoy living in Canada, but I miss Seoul. If I go back to Korea, I'm going to miss many things of Canada. There is no perfect place. As for me, I like living in the city. I'll go to the countryside for vacation.^^
+B.B I (Sarah) totally agree with you! Canada is so beautiful and spacious and the people are so friendly, but when I lived there, I always found it so boring, haha! When I was in Canada, I missed the convenience of Seoul, but when I'm in Seoul, I miss the quiet nature in Canada. I do love living in Seoul now though, I've gotten too use to city life to live out in the countryside, but visiting would be perfect.
Well, in Korea, I love the city and convenience. But a short trip takes you to the woods, or a cheap flight to Jeju. So you get everything. I loved living in the woods as a kid, but there were times when it was bad. Like being snowed in, power outages that wouldn't be taken care of because you were out in the woods. Or when your car was low on gas, and you didn't know if you can make it. So you sacrifice a back yard and roomier apartments that you don't get much time to enjoy, for convenience easily. Besides, with higher real estate prices, everyone is getting smaller and smaller places anyway.
i reaaaallllly love your vlogs (and you guys :P) i think i'll choose nature because in dubai, its a very urban city, so i really want to experience or adapt to nature/rural areas -is it much more sociable in korea or canada ? p.s, i'd like i if you guys did the husband/wife tag ^^
A village, definitely. I have a pet and write so more peaceful area is more satisfying for us. Animals should live outdoor, in touch with nature. When I brought my cat to a yard, after two years closed in a flat, he was mesmerized by nature and now just want to be out.
시골에 살다가 서울에 살고 있는 케이스인데요 어렸을때부터 도시에 살던 사람은 잘 못느끼겠지만 시골에 살다가 도시로 이주한 사람은 시골을 그리워해요 근데 막상 또 시골로 가게되면 도시의 편리함을 그리워하게 되죠 패스트 라이프와 슬로우 라이프 둘다 꼭 필요하다고 생각이듭니다
I know this is a year or so late reply. Personally? I grew up in Singapore, a small and compact city. I believe it's roughly the same size? Everything is high rise and New York like. So if I'm given the choice between a spacious country, nature and house. I'll give up my city life any day or time. I love the huge spacious backyard, Sarah has in her home. I could lay there all day reading and dozing off. As compared to my small apartment here.
+Ranger629 Ohh, actually, Singapore is a place we'd love to live for a year or so ^^ It seems like such a beautiful clean city--but a bit expensive, haha.
2hearts1seoul Singapore will welcome you with open arms. Hahaha, it's pretty much Seoul like feeling to it. Except everything is spoken with either Mandarin or English. No cold weather though, it's kinda hot and humid. Hahaha, I saw you guys saying 17 degree C was kinda hot. Singapore averages 30-35 and at best 24-26 during monsoon season.
I grew up in a unique suburban area in the United States. My neighborhood was situated between two lakes and in a heavily forested area. My home had a nice yard and nature trails nearby like Sarah's parent's home does. I currently live in Gwangju in the Jeolla province of Korea. I am so lucky that my neighborhood has many well developed parks, a reservoir and a river that runs by my apartment. Personally, I would prefer living in a compact city, with all the conveniences and depend only on the local parks and watering holes. When I get the itch for some more intense outdoor activities, I can catch a bus to the base of a mountain for some hiking. I assume in Seoul it takes much longer to get to the base of a mountain or a hiking trail??
+Nick McKenna Sounds like you grew up in a beautiful place! I have several friends living Seoul who hike often, and as far as I know, it doesn't take too long to get to the base of mountains. I was actually surprised there were so many accessible mountains in Seoul when I first moved here.
When I was little I used to live in Mexico. My house is actually at the bottom of a mountain and like you Sarah I had a big backyard as well. But I moved to Philadelphia (USA) and it's too expensive to live in a house so I live in an apt. I still can't adapt from going to a big house to a small apt. :( But there is no wifi back in Mexico where I live so that the only bad thing hahaha.
+Mariela Perez I also live in Philadelphia and moved here from a small area in the suburbs surrounded by forest! Its also really weird for me to not have a yard and somewhere for my dog to run freely but I mean in my old neighborhood I had to stand outside next to a telephone pole just to get wifi TT so Im torn lol
2hearts1seoul Yes you should definitely visit! Really good tourist destination! Its bright, sunny, has great food and loads of activities. I can recommend a few places in Singapore to visit if you'd like.
I've used to lived in Jakarta. My house is small as compared to those in Canada and other parts of North America's. We had no backyard just a small space to grow plants. Life was not as convenient as Singapore, the place I'm living right now.. Jakarta has no proper transportation system, and having a car means traffic jam 24/7. On contrary, Singapore's transportation system is superb but people here are more busy and life is so fast paced. Almost all of us live in small apartment funded by the government but everything is here; playground, neighbourhood schools, fitness, and even elderly spaces. I can't imagine myself living life slow paced and living with ample space to round around with. But i would like to try so in my olden age :)
I love in central California and I would prefer a smaller city with open spaces and nature. I'm only 2 hours from the Pacific Ocean, San Francisco, and Yosemite National Park. I would hate to live in a crowded city...it's nice to visit but it's not for me. Keep up the good work! Love you guys. I'm so happy I stumbled upon your channel.
Thank you so much! :D I usually shop online at G-Market! They are literally thousands of different sellers and the selection and prices are incredible ^^
저에게는 양념반후라이드반, 짬짜면, 엄마가 좋아 아빠가 좋아 같은 질문이네요 사람마다 좋아하는 성향이 다르겠지만 저라면 대도시 근처 자연이 있는 소도시에 마당 있는 집에서 살고 싶어요 대도시로 출근을 해야 한다는 불편함을 제외하면 다른 것은 크게 불편할 것 같지도 않고 자연도 가까이 있고 좋지 않을까 생각하니다 생각만 하지 막상 실행에 옮기기는 어렵겠지만요
To choose between those . I think it isn't necessary for me. Because the area that I'm staying at in Malaysia is very convenient and you just need 5minutes from the house to the shopping malls. 1minute to the wet market, convenient stores ,and school. The best part : just 30minutes drive to Singapore. And the house is spacious from the inside and outside. There's a big parking lot with a pond and patio outside. Having a car is a must if your not living in big cities like Kuala Lumpur. I do like Korea though.
2hearts1seoul Thank You. I went to Korea last week with my family and we tried all three transportation. We find korea alright but the only difficult thing was the language barrier. People there were helpfull and tried to show us ways even though they dont speak english. We were also lucky to find some Korean who can speak chinese. On the 3 of DEC we left korea and the most amazing thing that happened was it was snowing. It was an interesting journey in Korea for all of us.
I thnk like kyuho when i was younger i prefer city life, i still like it but as you get older with kids its better a house and maybe get a car and you still can get to the places, sometimes you want quiet time especially when you have kids and are older
Thank god i am living in the city but my neighborhood is very quiet with clean air because i have near my house a lot of trees and also for go to the sea you need to walk 20 minutes.. also in my house i have a backyard xD haha but i also want when i will be old to go and live on a village or somewhere very quiet with a lot of nature.. also i like the sea so i prefer to live somewhere near the sea .. i think i will agree with Kyuho
I'm from Morocco and I wanna visit South Korea so bad, find a korean husband get married and settle down there, and watching your videos gives me hope so thank you Sarah btw you two look lovely together
+Nisrine Monadi Haha, well I didn't come to South Korea to get married--I wasn't interested at all in getting involved anyone when I came here to work, but it just kind of happened 😅 I don't think it matters what country your partner is from, as long as you connect with one another 😊
I've grown up in the country as well as in the suburbs, and have frequently visited the city here in Melbourne, I would say I prefer being closer to the city for ease of buying things and getting around with public transport, but when I get older I would probably like the country better. The best middle ground is just an inner suburb where you can have a house, public transport and be near to public parks and bike trails :)
I need space and nature. I've never lived in the city, there's not many places to go barefoot, you don't see deer, foxes and other wildlife, and there's too much light pollution to watch the stars. I love adventuring, I don't mind living 45 minutes away from town, I spend less money that way.
I used to live in Toronto then my family moved to live on a farm. I live in the city for university now, and I really miss Toronto. I could say I prefer a large city like Toronto, because it's convenient and multicultural! If I can afford the housing and I have a good pay job, I would definitely move back to Toronto!
I've never lived in a city so I don't know. Where I live doesn't really cater to city living; the city has only recently been pushing for more apartments for people to live in because of the housing sprawls; even young people live in houses but have house mates to bring down the rent. So I think I would like the experience of living in a city; while I'm still young though because I do agree city living is more for the young. Another up side I guess would be that living in a smaller space would mean less cleaning haha and you couldn't hoard as much stuff because there's no room to have random stuff that you don't need/realise you have until you have to move out and wonder why you have 3 broken rice cookers, a surfboard and a box of old books that don't belong to anyone in the house -_-'
"Gochu" "You have to pronounce it carefully. It has two meanings." I remember my student laughed so hard once when I said "Gochu", but he could not tell me why he was laughing. hahahaha!
to earn city is a better place ,but to have an overall peace I prefer nature sacrificing the comforts of the city. City does get monotnus after a while
I only found this video just now :( I really would rather be in a bustling city where everything is available at all hours and the convenience of everything in grasping reach. I live in a big city but most things shut early and it's so inconvenient! Public Transport and cost of living is so expensive here.
I have been here in Australia for 2years. and Im a Korean. I also feel same like what u said. sometimes Im so hungry especially early morning. but there is no delivery service at midnight. So I would like to choose Seoul city system that I can eat everything in anywhere and anytime.^^
+조연진 24-hour food delivery is definitely one of my favorite, favorite things about Korea ^^
Actually when I went to Seoul I found so many green areas...
Hi you two! I just discovered you and I adore your videos.To answer your question, I don't have to choose because I'm leaving in the perfect city, where the balance between history, art, nature and "city convenience" is excellent.It's in Québec city, Canada of course, the oldest city in north america :) I don't have a car, I do everything on foot or bus and I can take a walk in a forest anytime I want. It's a little bit different culturally from the rest of Canada but in general, you have basically the same feel of relaxation, calm and beauty. And, we speak french!!! Yes, I know it's strange for outsiders ;) !!! So that's it! I'm really happy here, but I think I have a strong fascination for Korea and I want to go there in the future. Thank you very much for all the informations you give, it's very interresting and helpful! Please pardon my english, like I said, I speak french I'm a "québécoise" :D
I love watching your videos because it is giving me ideas of where to visit on my next trip to Seoul
this is the neighborhood where i grew up before moving to america! we went to that market every weekend! i was in seoul a year ago and we went back!
I love you guys and I love the way South Korea looks so much, but I really need me nature! My backyard is everything. Love from rural New York.
You go through different cycles in your life. When you are young, single or newlywed like yourselves, it's important to have that urban life because it's how you discover things (like that area Kyuho had never been to.). It also makes for easy walkability, and if you have bikes/bike lanes (urban biking movement) and good transportation system it's a no brainer. You can always rent a car if you have to go out to visit grandpa or go with your parents, like you've done. If you are going on a weekend get away to another area like the seaside, you can take a train or plane, right? Most parents want a backyard for their kids, and a bit more space once they've become established, but when the kids are off on their own, the empty nesters are opting back for downsizing and urban living like they did when they were young newlyweds. (at least they can until they get so aged they might have to live with their kids, etc. ) The cycles of life and how we live. My husband and I have the best, we own a 3 bedroom bungalow in the City close to a hipster neighborhood here in Chicago. We have a small backyard, which is perfect because we are approaching our 60's so it's still not too much for us. We are talking of moving to a smaller condo in a few years. No kids/grandkids. No dogs, 2 cats.
+Patricia Niedrich A quiet, relaxing life with your significant other and 2 cats~ That sounds absolutely perfect :)
연애 기간도 꽤 되었는데 젊은 커플이 행복해보이네요 그들의 앞날에 행운이 깃들이길..
좋은 영상 감사해요 추천드리고 갑니다.
I love big cities and right now I work in Düsseldorf, but in the evening I return to my parents house, it's in a really small village. We have our own backyard with a lot of beautiful trees and flowers. It's so lovly!! Nature is incredible! but it's the best to have both.
+Elisabeth Goldstein Your parents' house sounds beautiful! I agree, if only we could have both!
I'm torn in between but to have house I will say country side with big spaces. love your videos. God bless.
5:22 세라 너무 귀여워요 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I've grown up in a valley in Southern California with lots of hills, mountains, and open space, which is great, but it's impossible to get anywhere quickly without a car! I'm ready to move to the city, haha. :D
Also, Kyuho's hair is on point lol.
+vivaLucci Although I have always loved nature growing up, I also got annoyed with how long it took to get anywhere in more rural areas, and I couldn't wait to move to a big city when I was in my early 20's :)
+vivaLucci When I lived in Georgia it would literally take a hour to a hour and a half to get to the mall... You could drive on the same long dirt road lined with trees forever TT Yea its really pretty and freeing until you need to be somewhere on short notice AND in a timely fashion! lol
childkc Well at least you've got trees everywhere! We have flat land, and hills of brush. :P
+vivaLucci I understand completely, I'm from the High Desert in Southern California, and everything is so spaced out it's annoying.
Your videos are so calming to watch. Just love it!
I agree. I am completely torn. I live in Dallas, Texas, and I am always totally stunned at how early things close!
Loved this couple,this is my first time on this site.but enjoy watching my girlfriend live in Nova Scotia.i sacrifice city living I love nature and fresh air peace and quiet living.God bless you both.
세라 누나, 규호 형 :D I'm Jamie ! Long time no see !! How y'll doing?? Looks like you guys are safely back in Korea !! Ive been real busy since my school started a few weeks ago. I came back to Tennessee for my school after spending the whole summer in Korea. It was def worth it. I hope y'all are not too tired from jet lag !!
About the question, I'd rather choose Korea than Canada or America. It's not because I dislike them. I do like living in America. However, I grew up in Korea, so everything is just more convenient and familiar to me. If I grew up in America, I would choose it over Korea. It's just the matter of each person's preference. They are equally lovely and beautiful in different ways. (but I do enjoy nature here, I can go jump off the cliffs and go waterrafting and such.)
The most important thing is more of your way of thinking. Some people can be happy living in Africa. On the other hand, there are still people who are unsatisfied with their lives even though they literally have everything. ! I know it's a bit off the topic and not the exact answer that you'd expect, but it's true ! so I hope y'all are very satisfied with what you've got in Korea !!! Love y'all
Well I lived in both. And I'm so so much happier with nature and my big space. I don't care I have to drive at least 15 minutes to go somewhere . I love big house , garden having my own space. Birds make me up morning with their songs ! What could I ask more ? :D
+ayse aicha I definitely need to spend time in nature to recharge from city life. I love waking up in the morning and sitting on the deck every morning at my parents' house in Canada while listening to the birds sing~
+2hearts1seoul exactly. after a busy day when i come home i feel refreshed.
Great lunch box idea! :D Hope you guys are enjoying your time back in Korea x
I lived and worked in Cheongju for a year and enjoyed my time there but I really loved coming back home to Melbourne, Australia.
Ahhhhhh I'm so jealous but happy for you guys that you went back to Nova Scotia for the summer break!!!!!!!!! Loved watching the videos~
Hilarious that you two miss nature all ready. Two peas in a pod :)
+Osharegirl Hahah yeah, we were totally spoiled because the the huge backyard at my parents' house :p
Like here in Portugal, we have like the centre of the city and the rest is calm, not busy. But the city centers aren't like Seoul. We have a few variety of stores in a reasonable quantity. Like in the US and in Seoul, from what I've seen in vlogs, if you want to eat something korean you search for a korean products market. Here in Portugal, where I live we only have portuguese stores with portuguese products or worlwide know products. I want to buy foreign products but it is impossible. Seoul was everything in every corner and is one of the most busiest cities. I would choose Seoul for that reason. (A little late but that is OK, right? XD)
Nice forest that you just showed
Yumm! the lunch box looks good!
Finally! A video!
I feel the same as Kyuho, right now I live in the Washington DC area and I love the convenience of having so many things at my fingertips. Like great restaurants, food trucks, entertainment etc. As I get older I would like to be able to live a more quite lifestyle. If only we could have it all, lol. Love your vlogs
+Georgia Ruggiero Hahah, exactly--When I'm in Canada I miss things about Korea, but when I'm in Korea I miss things about Canada :p Thanks so much :D
Thanks to you guys for capturing these briar idyl images of nature and sharing it with us. I am truly grateful to be able to see it. Next step is to actually see and experience it all in the flesh instead of via phone. 👍🏿
*these beautiful images* 😂
I live in Canada...but in the prairies, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. So everything is VERY spread out. I love the summer months and fall. The sky is beautiful and I don't mind driving where I need to then but I hate winter driving. We get so much snow!! I think I would prefer a compact city environment then. Or just live somewhere warm during the winter months. I wouldn't mind having summer and winter homes so I never have to deal with cold or snow unless I purposely want to go snowboarding...which living on the prairies doesn't help much either.
여름에는 시골, 나머지 계절은 도시에서..^^
The thing about Seoul is you can always take the metro to the suburbs where there is a lot of open space. So for me its like the best of both worlds there is convenience and public transportation and when you want open space and nature close by
Your videos are so relaxing to watch... I love it!
ah I just moved to Seoul and it's so different from my home. I lived in the country so I was very used to nature. Now there's so many people and I live on the 20th floor of a building~~
At the moment I live in Vietnem! But I love Seoul! I will be there for the Next Chinese New Year! Can't wait to be there!
오 통인시장 저도 한번 가보고 싶네요ㅎ
can't get enough of your videos.. love them so much haha
well my city in Colombia it's a little same that Canada. We have a lot of space, big houses and green areas but the stores close at 6 or 8 depend of the location. So... i think i dont need 24/7 store but i will miss green areas and big spaces :)
I'm a born and bred city slicker so I'd have to say the city for me... but I'd definitely need little trips and holidays to the country - if only just to maintain sanity. I think I'm like Kyu-ho, city while I'm young and the country when I'm older!
This really made me appreciate where i live and i think i've actually taken it for granted :'D i'm still with my parents and live in a nice big house is a suburb surrounded by parks and there are convenient cafe's and other places to order/buy food and grocery stores really nearby. The beach is also just a few min away from where i live. And whenever i want to experience the bustling city i just need to catch the train (a short distance away) that will take me there in 25 min. I like the idea of living in seoul, however i'm not sure if i'd wanna live there for more then just a few years, because i do appreciate nature very much. South Korea is definitely an amazing place to travel to though and i can't wait to in the future! I live in Australia :)
I have just recently got back from Seoul, visiting my little sister. She took me to Tongin market but we didn't have the Dosirak. We had this fried tteokbokki at one of the stall. It was different with other tteokbokki, this one was fried with a little oil, so that the red sauce becomes dry. I personally prefer this kind of tteokbokki, but I don't think this can be found easily. You should try that tteokbokki!
I kinda wished to bump into you guys when I was in Korea lol
I wish we had those swinging leg excising machine thingys at 7:23 in Canada. I always see them in movies and I think if those were at the park near my house, I'd go play on them everyday lol
Where I live in California they also have workout stations but they are like more rundown.
Ive never lived in a city like Seoul so trying it once would be interesting. Im from Canada as well so I'm used to the more spread out cities :)
I was thinking the same as kyuho, young in the city but older in the country .
I live in a neighborhood that's kind of suburban so I'd have to go with natures way . :b
Sorry Manhattan , I love you but
I've lived in a very busy city in New Jersey, then outside of Chicago (suburb), in the countryside of NE Oklahoma and finally in Florida (north of Orlando). Our home now backs up to a lake, so we see lots of birds, squirrels, etc. I think having a view of the lake is my fav - very peaceful. Love your vlog and so glad you had a great vacation in Canada. :))
+Leslie Williams Having a view of a lake must be breathtaking~!
I have lived in both Taiwan (compact city and convenient, but smaller and much busier/noisier) and New Jersey (open and spacious, and horrible public transportation), so I can understand how you guys are torn between both. Personally though, the United States is a bit more nostalgic for me, because I grew up there.
For me it was that nostalgic value for me with the backyard and open space where I get to explore and find deer in my backyard and find a spring/hiking trail in my own neighborhood. I guess you guys just have to find that one special thing that will ultimately differentiate which type of place you want to be in.
Best of luck, and I love your videos as always!
So beautiful!
This is such a clever idea!
I need both. Currently i live in a City which is still a village compared to Seoul haha but i would rather live in a house with a nice garden in front or something.
바쁜일상보단 자연이랑함께 천천히 지내는게더좋다고봐요
In Las Vegas everything is pretty much 24 hours too , and majority of people live in houses with yards . In my neighborhood I live close to a shopping center too so I can walk there within 5 minutes for groceries , coffee shop , resturants , it's pretty convenient but not as much as Korea
Large open space sounds soooo nice especially when you start having children. I'm not even that old but I love having nature and a backyard near me. I wish houses were more affordable cause I would definitely own one now with a backyard.
😂🤣😅
Seoul without hesitation! But I should try to go to Seoul first!
Where you able to keep the food that you didn't eat? Also from another video. I love you cat. Mine like plastic shopping bags too :) and she was a cutie. talking too that was so cute.
you guys should visit vancouver. :) we have nice downtown and uptown areas that I'm sure you'll love!
I live in a village in Canada (close to a city thank god!) and I think I prefer this to big cities like Montreal because it is really relaxing and even though we don't have public transport and I have to take my car to go everywhere I like this more than having to take a bus with people that I don't know. Also I looove silence and I'm telling you, driving in the countryside and seeing cows, horses and sometimes deers is really nice and relaxing before going to school ^^
한국의 작은 소도시 근처에 있는 시골중에는 땅값이 매우싼곳도 있어요 ㅋ
Hey~
So I'm from Berlin in Germany.... Berlin is a big city but not as big or crowded as Seoul but I do like it that you can go anywhere with the public transportation system (even if it does not work every time though -.-) But to relax properly I'll often go to my mum's house which is an hour from Berlin in the Spreewald where it's really quiet and the stores close at 8 pm and on saturdays at 4pm and that's really nice for a week or two X3
Ohhh, that sounds really lovely! Only an hour from Berlin--that sounds like the perfection place to relax, but it's still super close to he city :)
+2hearts1seoul indeed it is!- the perfect combination of forest, lakes and city x3 the thing is that the transportation system outside of Berlin is not that good (one bus per hour or longer) and it is also very expensive (and the price is rising) so that you would need a car to get fast and cheap to your destination... but lucky enough Berlin is a very green city that's what I love the most about Berlin -
and thank you so much for the nice answer! 🙈
We're torn too. We love living in Tokyo but we made the decision to live on the outskirts so we could get a bigger place for the same cost as a shoebox apartment in the centre of town. It's still convenient enough for us where we live and we can still easily travel to the city whenever we want.
LOL the red pepper part
+Kristen Wong what is the other meaning? isn't it just pepper?
obviously canada i love nature!!!
저도 규호씨와 생각이 같아요. 서른 초반까지는 서울에서 직장 생활 했지만, 지금 지방에서 직장생활 하는데 생활이 훨씬 여유가 생겼어요. 일단 부동산 가격이 싸니까 같은 월급에도 훨씬 여유가 있어 좋네요.
+Minyoung Lee 확실히 삶의 만족도는 상대적인거 같아요! 앞으로 세라와 함께 어디서 살아야할지 어느나라에서 사는게 저희에게 맞을지 벌써부터 고민하게 되요. 지방을 선택하신 이유는 어떠한 이유때문인지 물어봐도 괜찮을까요?
네 그럼요. 어릴 적엔 서울에 화려함이나 왠지 큰도시에서 일을 해야 큰일 하는 것 같다는 생각에 사로잡혀 있던 거 같아요. 그래서 저와 맞지도 않는 직업을 억지로 붙잡고 매달렸으니까요. 유통회사 영업지원팀에서 일을 했는데 유통이라는 일이 사람 사귀는 일이더라구요. 그런데 그게 제 천성과 너무 맞지도 않고 보수는 적어서 서울의 높은 물가를 생각하면 미래가 갑갑했습니다.
그렇게 미래가 보이지 않는 생활에 지쳐갈 때쯤 저 스스로에 대해서 심각하게 고민했었고 생각을 바꾸고 시선을 넓혀보니 기능인으로 사는 것도 나쁘지 않다고 여겨졌습니다. 정장입고 출퇴근 하던 생활에서 작업복을 입고 새로운 직업교육을 받고 산업현장에서 용접공으로 새삶을 시작했습니다. 이제 11년차 되어가구요. 3D 업종입니다. 위험하고, 더럽고, 까다로운 일이지만 정직하게 땀흘린만큼 벌고 있어요. 사실 여름엔 숨쉬기 힘들 정도로 덥습니다. 산업용 마스크, 귀마개, 안전모, 전신을 덥는 두꺼운 용접복, 무거운 안전화, 보안경 등의 안전 보호구로 몸의 일부분도 노출시키지 않아요.
그리고 일 외적인 부분, 가끔 일년에 한, 두번 서울에 가면 과거에 내가 이 정신 사나운 곳에서 어떻게 5년이나 살았을까 싶은 생각이 들어요. 어떤 사람들은 지방 소도시는 무덤같이 조용하다고 푸념도 하지만 저는 그게 더 좋더라구요. 주말엔 등산을 겸한 다른 고장 여행하기 좋구요. 서울은 주말에 고속도로 막히는 거 겁나 짜증나잖아요.
전,월세 부담이 훨씬 적으니까 제 아파트도 장만했구요. 지방산단은 출퇴근이 불편해서 거의 모든 직장인이 자가용가 있구요. 같은 돈을 번다면 더 너른 편한집과 여유를 주는 건 사실이죠.
일년에 한, 두번 울 각시랑 수도권 산으로 등산가면서 서울 구경을 가는데 둘이 그래요. 와 이런 신기한 거도 있어 하면서 웃다가 우리 이제 촌사람 다 됐다고 키득거려요.
서울의 문명을 포기하고 천천히 사는 삶을 선택했다고 할까요. 울 각시랑 저는 만족하고 있어요. 단, 울 각시가 저와 취미가 같고 자연을 즐기는 것을 좋아해서 적응하기 쉬웠던 거 같아요.
I'm living in Canada for 1 and a half years and going back to Korea next year. Canada is a beautiful country. People are very nice. But sometimes I feel boring. Big cities in Korea are busy and crowded. But on the other hand, it is fun, dynamic and convenient. Also you can go anywhere cheaply and have good chances to learn many things. Now I really enjoy living in Canada, but I miss Seoul. If I go back to Korea, I'm going to miss many things of Canada. There is no perfect place. As for me, I like living in the city. I'll go to the countryside for vacation.^^
+B.B I (Sarah) totally agree with you! Canada is so beautiful and spacious and the people are so friendly, but when I lived there, I always found it so boring, haha! When I was in Canada, I missed the convenience of Seoul, but when I'm in Seoul, I miss the quiet nature in Canada. I do love living in Seoul now though, I've gotten too use to city life to live out in the countryside, but visiting would be perfect.
Well, in Korea, I love the city and convenience. But a short trip takes you to the woods, or a cheap flight to Jeju. So you get everything.
I loved living in the woods as a kid, but there were times when it was bad. Like being snowed in, power outages that wouldn't be taken care of because you were out in the woods. Or when your car was low on gas, and you didn't know if you can make it.
So you sacrifice a back yard and roomier apartments that you don't get much time to enjoy, for convenience easily. Besides, with higher real estate prices, everyone is getting smaller and smaller places anyway.
i reaaaallllly love your vlogs (and you guys :P)
i think i'll choose nature because in dubai, its a very urban city, so i really want to experience or adapt to nature/rural areas
-is it much more sociable in korea or canada ?
p.s, i'd like i if you guys did the husband/wife tag ^^
A village, definitely. I have a pet and write so more peaceful area is more satisfying for us. Animals should live outdoor, in touch with nature. When I brought my cat to a yard, after two years closed in a flat, he was mesmerized by nature and now just want to be out.
시골에 살다가 서울에 살고 있는 케이스인데요 어렸을때부터 도시에 살던 사람은 잘 못느끼겠지만 시골에 살다가 도시로 이주한 사람은 시골을 그리워해요 근데 막상 또 시골로 가게되면 도시의 편리함을 그리워하게 되죠 패스트 라이프와 슬로우 라이프 둘다 꼭 필요하다고 생각이듭니다
I know this is a year or so late reply. Personally? I grew up in Singapore, a small and compact city. I believe it's roughly the same size? Everything is high rise and New York like. So if I'm given the choice between a spacious country, nature and house. I'll give up my city life any day or time. I love the huge spacious backyard, Sarah has in her home. I could lay there all day reading and dozing off. As compared to my small apartment here.
+Ranger629 Ohh, actually, Singapore is a place we'd love to live for a year or so ^^ It seems like such a beautiful clean city--but a bit expensive, haha.
2hearts1seoul Singapore will welcome you with open arms. Hahaha, it's pretty much Seoul like feeling to it. Except everything is spoken with either Mandarin or English.
No cold weather though, it's kinda hot and humid. Hahaha, I saw you guys saying 17 degree C was kinda hot. Singapore averages 30-35 and at best 24-26 during monsoon season.
You guys make me move there so bad !!!
go with your guts
have fun
you guys look so cute
I'm lucky to be 20 minutes outside of Manhattan. Best of both worlds
I grew up in a unique suburban area in the United States. My neighborhood was situated between two lakes and in a heavily forested area. My home had a nice yard and nature trails nearby like Sarah's parent's home does. I currently live in Gwangju in the Jeolla province of Korea. I am so lucky that my neighborhood has many well developed parks, a reservoir and a river that runs by my apartment. Personally, I would prefer living in a compact city, with all the conveniences and depend only on the local parks and watering holes. When I get the itch for some more intense outdoor activities, I can catch a bus to the base of a mountain for some hiking. I assume in Seoul it takes much longer to get to the base of a mountain or a hiking trail??
+Nick McKenna Sounds like you grew up in a beautiful place! I have several friends living Seoul who hike often, and as far as I know, it doesn't take too long to get to the base of mountains. I was actually surprised there were so many accessible mountains in Seoul when I first moved here.
When I was little I used to live in Mexico. My house is actually at the bottom of a mountain and like you Sarah I had a big backyard as well. But I moved to Philadelphia (USA) and it's too expensive to live in a house so I live in an apt. I still can't adapt from going to a big house to a small apt. :( But there is no wifi back in Mexico where I live so that the only bad thing hahaha.
+Mariela Perez Hahah, I love how it comes down to nature VS wifi >D
+Mariela Perez I also live in Philadelphia and moved here from a small area in the suburbs surrounded by forest! Its also really weird for me to not have a yard and somewhere for my dog to run freely but I mean in my old neighborhood I had to stand outside next to a telephone pole just to get wifi TT so Im torn lol
무게로 달아 파는 런치박스 가게가 있는건 저도 처음 알았네요^^ 외국인들은 이런 컨텐츠를 정말 좋아할듯 합니다^^
I love the city, in specific, Singapore because in Singapore there are trees everywhere and many parks within the city!
+tile late We actually REALLY, really wanted to visit Singapore someday soon, and this just convinced us even more :)
2hearts1seoul Yes you should definitely visit! Really good tourist destination! Its bright, sunny, has great food and loads of activities. I can recommend a few places in Singapore to visit if you'd like.
I would choose a city life with nature near by, as long as I can go for a walk in the nature, i'm happy. (:
I've used to lived in Jakarta. My house is small as compared to those in Canada and other parts of North America's. We had no backyard just a small space to grow plants. Life was not as convenient as Singapore, the place I'm living right now.. Jakarta has no proper transportation system, and having a car means traffic jam 24/7. On contrary, Singapore's transportation system is superb but people here are more busy and life is so fast paced. Almost all of us live in small apartment funded by the government but everything is here; playground, neighbourhood schools, fitness, and even elderly spaces. I can't imagine myself living life slow paced and living with ample space to round around with. But i would like to try so in my olden age :)
저는 경기도처럼 도심과 가까이 위치해 있으면서 전원이 있는 주택에서 산다며 더할나위 없을 것 같아요! 자연을 사랑해요. 주택에서 아기자기한 정원과 채소밭을 가꾸며 사랑스러운 애완동물과 함게 사는게 꿈이랍니다ㅎ
전 규호씨 의견에 동의해요. 사회생활과 경제활동을 활발하게 하는 청장년 시기에는 도시가 살기 적합한 반면에 노후에는 쾌적한 환경이 우선시 되는 것 같아요. 바쁘게 살아온 만큼 남은 여생은 쉬어야 한다는 생각이랄까..?ㅎㅎ
can you please do a other q and a video!??!!?
I love in central California and I would prefer a smaller city with open spaces and nature. I'm only 2 hours from the Pacific Ocean, San Francisco, and Yosemite National Park. I would hate to live in a crowded city...it's nice to visit but it's not for me. Keep up the good work! Love you guys. I'm so happy I stumbled upon your channel.
Oh wowww, it sounds like you live in a beautiful area though! I've always dreamt of visiting Yosemite Park! :O
Hey Sarah, I love your style. Do you have any online clothing stores that you recommend?
Thank you so much! :D I usually shop online at G-Market! They are literally thousands of different sellers and the selection and prices are incredible ^^
How do you your make up it's so beautiful !
저에게는 양념반후라이드반, 짬짜면, 엄마가 좋아 아빠가 좋아 같은 질문이네요
사람마다 좋아하는 성향이 다르겠지만
저라면 대도시 근처 자연이 있는 소도시에 마당 있는 집에서 살고 싶어요
대도시로 출근을 해야 한다는 불편함을 제외하면 다른 것은 크게 불편할 것 같지도 않고 자연도 가까이 있고 좋지 않을까 생각하니다
생각만 하지 막상 실행에 옮기기는 어렵겠지만요
To choose between those . I think it isn't necessary for me. Because the area that I'm staying at in Malaysia is very convenient and you just need 5minutes from the house to the shopping malls. 1minute to the wet market, convenient stores ,and school. The best part : just 30minutes drive to Singapore. And the house is spacious from the inside and outside. There's a big parking lot with a pond and patio outside. Having a car is a must if your not living in big cities like Kuala Lumpur. I do like Korea though.
+Julanie Koh That sounds lovely~! My dream is to live in a place wear it's warm/hot all year round, so that sounds perfect~
2hearts1seoul Thank You.
I went to Korea last week with my family and we tried all three transportation. We find korea alright but the only difficult thing was the language barrier. People there were helpfull and tried to show us ways even though they dont speak english. We were also lucky to find some Korean who can speak chinese. On the 3 of DEC we left korea and the most amazing thing that happened was it was snowing. It was an interesting journey in Korea for all of us.
I thnk like kyuho when i was younger i prefer city life, i still like it but as you get older with kids its better a house and maybe get a car and you still can get to the places, sometimes you want quiet time especially when you have kids and are older
넘잼나서 하나하나 다 보고있는데 한글자막이 있으면 더 재밌게 볼 수 있을거같아영ㅠ헹

Thank god i am living in the city but my neighborhood is very quiet with clean air because i have near my house a lot of trees and also for go to the sea you need to walk 20 minutes.. also in my house i have a backyard xD haha but i also want when i will be old to go and live on a village or somewhere very quiet with a lot of nature.. also i like the sea so i prefer to live somewhere near the sea .. i think i will agree with Kyuho
+Martina,Lucy M Yeah, I feel like that's the best route to go, I love living the a big city, but I do crave for nature sometimes~ ^^
I'm from Morocco and I wanna visit South Korea so bad, find a korean husband get married and settle down there, and watching your videos gives me hope so thank you Sarah btw you two look lovely together
+Nisrine Monadi Haha, well I didn't come to South Korea to get married--I wasn't interested at all in getting involved anyone when I came here to work, but it just kind of happened 😅 I don't think it matters what country your partner is from, as long as you connect with one another 😊
The right Suburbs somewhere will be the perfect mix of both worlds.
I've grown up in the country as well as in the suburbs, and have frequently visited the city here in Melbourne, I would say I prefer being closer to the city for ease of buying things and getting around with public transport, but when I get older I would probably like the country better. The best middle ground is just an inner suburb where you can have a house, public transport and be near to public parks and bike trails :)
+MoonlightPassions Having grown up in similar environments in Canada, I totally agree with you :)
You said it young city, old in a house in the country.
I need space and nature. I've never lived in the city, there's not many places to go barefoot, you don't see deer, foxes and other wildlife, and there's too much light pollution to watch the stars. I love adventuring, I don't mind living 45 minutes away from town, I spend less money that way.
I used to live in Toronto then my family moved to live on a farm. I live in the city for university now, and I really miss Toronto. I could say I prefer a large city like Toronto, because it's convenient and multicultural! If I can afford the housing and I have a good pay job, I would definitely move back to Toronto!
+MsJLOVEZ Toronto is sooo nice! Kyuho and I would actually like to live there someday, but with those housing prices...can't do it 😑
I've never lived in a city so I don't know. Where I live doesn't really cater to city living; the city has only recently been pushing for more apartments for people to live in because of the housing sprawls; even young people live in houses but have house mates to bring down the rent.
So I think I would like the experience of living in a city; while I'm still young though because I do agree city living is more for the young.
Another up side I guess would be that living in a smaller space would mean less cleaning haha and you couldn't hoard as much stuff because there's no room to have random stuff that you don't need/realise you have until you have to move out and wonder why you have 3 broken rice cookers, a surfboard and a box of old books that don't belong to anyone in the house -_-'
live in korea
At First i thought you were another channel with 2 you tubers in Korea so I was so confused
So, is that the similar idea of cafeteria eating in the West?
"Gochu"
"You have to pronounce it carefully. It has two meanings."
I remember my student laughed so hard once when I said "Gochu", but he could not tell me why he was laughing. hahahaha!
+TheCzev HA! Yup, that's exactly why I usually try to avoid saying that word at all costs! :p
to earn city is a better place ,but to have an overall peace I prefer nature sacrificing the comforts of the city. City does get monotnus after a while
I only found this video just now :( I really would rather be in a bustling city where everything is available at all hours and the convenience of everything in grasping reach. I live in a big city but most things shut early and it's so inconvenient! Public Transport and cost of living is so expensive here.
Small spaces , 1. Im a small person 2. I avoid clutter 3. I think i just really want to live in Korea specially after watching your videos =D
1:08 LOL
