So i guess winter is here now...thats that, no autumn, no easing into it...nothing. Its as if overnight (or rather over the course of a week) that all the cold winds and frost's got together and had a meeting over the state of us here in South Korea, and obviously they decided it was time for something a bit more on the cooler side. So that means underfloor heating and slippers on, hot chocolate in hand, and warm coffee shops to explore!
But just in-case you do succumb to the cold (or if you want to prevent yourself from falling victim to a snotty nose) youy can pick up these yummy Vitamin C sweety things from any pharmacy here! They are inexpensive (ranging from W2000-W6000 *$2-$5*, taste good and better yet, they're good for you :) My co-teachers even give them to the kids in place of regular sweets and candy :)
The Korean word for pharmacy is 약국, and you'll see 약 (pronounced "yak") usually in big, red letters on neon signs everywhere you look!
And if you do get sick, going to the doctor doesn't have to be a stress, just click here for our earlier post on seeing a Doctor here in Korea :)
