I'm going to show you my apartment today. Let's go take a look - over there.
The views from outside of my apartment - rice fields aplenty.
Don't look at the code. Don't look at the code! In we go.
And before I show you anything check out my awesome socks. They're stripey. Candy cane
for Christmas.
Welcome to my bedoire. It is just a bed, a couch, a bookshelf (which has no books on
it) and a little makeshift wardrobe and my dresser. Also, a tv I never use.
I mean look at all of this empty space. We've got to use it for something right? Dance party!
Oh yeah!
Or maybe not. We'll have to think of a better use for it.
And this here is my tiny little Korean kitchen. I'm going to show you what is going on here.
I've got this small sink, which is basically just washing the dishes here and drying them
up on this rack. I've got different Korean glasses. This is a Korean beer company Cass.
In Korean beer it is called Makju. I've got my Makju glasses. Who could be in Korea without
having metal chopsticks. I can even use them. Look at this. Good for you - you should be
able to after four years here. I should. I should. Agreed.
Let's see if I can pick up something here - this little butter knife. Excellent demonstration.
And you of course would do that in real life picking up butter knives with chopsticks.
Okay, so the other interesting thing about a Korean kitchen is that unlike western kitchens
you don't have an oven. You can see here that we just have a heating elements. There is
two actually and there is a frying pan which I never use because I don't cook.
Being a well paid teacher in Korea, of course I have a plentiful supply of food, as you
can see - or not. There is just condiments and water and juice and more condiments and
bread. It is a very - you can tell I don't eat here very often.
Bathroom time! Come on in. One thing interesting about a Korean apartment is that it is considered
to be a wet bathroom and a wet shower, so you put on your flip flops. You can see I
can just flip flop right into them all nice and dandy. Well done. If you look here this
is the shower area - the wet shower area. I've got my manly products and over here there
is a little humble bathroom.
Something looks different about this place. Yeah, there is something kind of wrong. Maybe,
could it be that it is clean for once. For once! Don't expect that to happen again.
Here is my spare room. Come on in. These are the two suitcases I brought in to Korea from
me from Canada. I've got my old camera bag, which I'm not even using anymore. It is empty
- just air. Here is my tripod, which I haven't been using nearly enough this year. My new
prize possession - my awesome orange little camera bag. Here is where I put my camera
right in here. It opens up.
So tell us what do you use this room for? I use it for studying - uh, nothing.
Final part of my apartment - the balcony. On the balcony we have of course the washer
and that is it.
Look at the gorgeous views. Look, of a parking lot! Yeah. Not.
You can flirt with the camera. That doesn't look like flirting. That looks creepy.
