Then is it safe if my gf goes alone? Transport easy?

SIL and our cousin, 2 girls, went on their own. Heard signs are in English also. I didn't go out on my own or with DH. Got 2 monsters to manage.

[quote=\"straffan23\"]Me... me abandoning the children and going for a holiday with girlfriends <GRIN>


After the holiday, usually hubby, children and maid will be more appreciative of my existance! I do this once every 1 to 3 years...

Had wanted to do this with some close friends end of the yr after DS' O levels. But alas, maybe it's not meant to be afterall cos Bangkok as at now seems an unlikely destination. Yet to come up with an alternative place ... :xedfingers:

Korea :evil:[/quote]Yes! V.tempted but one of our friend is not willing to leave her family for like longer than 4 - 5 days ... so we shall see ba. :xedfingers:

You need empty luggage to bring home your stash of skincare and kids stuff. Just be prepared to pay GST on them when you arrive.

Safe lah, 100% guarantee. In my home thread, i talked about the Korean's dislike for excessive bargaining by Chinese tourists so do not make this mistake. Just name a price and not bargain like fish market. I blended in very well in the crowd too. Bought a packet of grilled cuttlefish and sit in the open and enjoyed the crowd. I even had an Indian guy trying to make friend with me once he heard me speaking in English. My verdict is Korea is a safe country just that our pocket may not be that safe.

no worries lah. you can send your \"loot\" by EMS at any nearby post office... transit time is about 4 days.

IIRC, i paid about S$ 50 on EMS to mail back about 15kg of skincare products last year.
