Start going through your wardrobes! Coming Saturday, August 29th - Busan's third clothing swap event. I'm excited to move locations to HQ Gwangan after the sad closing of Table Talk. 

What's a Swap? A clothing swap is a fun gathering of people looking to get rid of their gently used, undesired items in exchange for someone else's gently used, undesired items. There is no requirement to donate clothes (I understand that some people are new and didn't come with much,) just come and have a search through and hopefully go home with something new. This is also a good opportunity for those leaving us to get their extra pieces to other expats or Koreans.

What to Bring? **Please Read** This event is all volunteer run almost solely by myself, Kara Bemis, thankfully I have been fortunate enough to have some friends volunteer to help me on the day of the swaps to sort through clothes, with that being said- it is hard work. We must go through all the left over clothes and get them to the correct location: garbage or thrift store. Please be very selective of what to donate. 

**NOTHING WITH STAINS, HOLES, NO INTIMATES.** 

Use this simple rule, if you wouldn't re-buy it like new, then it doesn't pass the test. All seasons permitted, summer to winter. Also, by being selective, please limit the amount that you bring, if you have a suitcase full of high quality items - great! If you have two suitcases full of low quality items that saw better days, then please leave those at home (again, due to the fact that it's hard work to sort through the left overs.)

Moving from a cafe to a bar, HQ and I are happy to announce that there shall be drink specials! Details to follow.

Make an afternoon of it, bring some friends, grab a drink, and swap till you drop. Just as before, this is a free event with a drink purchase your entrance fee, let's support HQ who is letting us hold the event at their waterfront spot.
