I always buy Timberland for winter boots and they can last me at least 3 winter trips. They can be used for SG daily use too. Dr Martens is another brand that I'll buy. As long as the sole ain't slippery, it goes.

I'm not sure about DSLR, your manual should indicate the right temperature. My old compact Minolta takes up to 5 degrees the last time and I had to keep them in my pocket most times.

How much Won do we need to bring for 7D 5night in Korea .. For basic expenses like meals and Tpt ?

if u are joining tour, u should ask which meals are provided before u calculate on that..

my calculation is :

each day :
- breakfast SGD10
- lunch SGD20
- dinner SGD30
- snack SGD10
- transport SGD15
- admission fee to places of interest SGD25

total each day is SGD110
7 days SGD770 + SGD200 for buffer or extra expenses..

the balance will from the estimate will be used to buy goodies for my relatives and friends..

[/quote]i think 3k is still quite tight cuz there will be many things ur children wld wan to buy and many things we as women like to buy and if u r bringing children to theme parks, it will easily costs about SGD40 & above for admission to Seoulland, Everland and Lotteworld. Seoul is a shopping & skincare paradise..

i'm gng seoul again during xmas. if u really really really want to save, u might be able to spend only $1.5k - $2k. i'm projecting abt $4k since im doing xmas shopping there..
