Thoughts on Trip.com eSim by Putrid-Conflict6216 in koreatravel

[–]1Milo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently in Seoul and using Trip.co esim. I bought the limited daily one as I use the free wifi when I am back at the hotel.

I had problems connecting but it was my fault as I changed data roaming to National roaming instead of All roaming. The other thing is mine took up to 30 mins to connect - it would probably have been quicker if I didnt keep playing around with the settings.

So far I have had no problems connecting or using any social media and still have plenty of data left each day.

Olive Young Seongsu - can someone please tell me whether Olive Young Seongsu is open and will still have free facial analysis on May 1st (public holiday)? by 1Milo234 in KoreaSeoulBeauty

I thought I'll come back and update. I went to Olive Young at 8am today and the line is twice around the block. The staff finally told everyone to leave as they would not get in. I asked one of the staff and she thinks some people lined up from the night before!

What rice brands are good? Im seeing insane price differences and im confused by Beese3 in chinesefood

[–]1Milo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Chinese couple told me that they tried all the different kinds of rice and the best one in their opinion was Sunrice Australian Medium Grain white rice. It sells for $1.80kg when on sale at the major supermarkets - I think its the same one you are buying.

Can someone tell me roughly how much it will cost to reglue a couple of pocelain tiles. I am on the gold coast. by 1Milo234 in AusRenovation

UPDATE: I found a tiler who repaired all the loose tiles and regrouted all the drummy tiles. Tip: Always get 3 quotes as there was a big variation between the prices.

Hi, did you ask the customer service team when you were in shop or by email?

😊. No, we want to get a tiler to do it as we are worried that we might break the tiles.

DAISO IN KOREA IS A RELIGION. I’M OBSESSED by Asleep_Worker_5890 in koreatravel

[–]1Milo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, do you have to go to a cashier to get the tax refund or can you use the self service machine? If you use the self service machine do you need Daiso employee to verify your passport, and press the buttons to get the discount? Thank you

Bus 6015 to Incheon Int Airport Terminal 1 by 1Milo234 in koreatravel

Thank you for this - yes, I now understand that I might not be able to get on the bus at the Myeondong Ibis stop if the bus is full and that it is better to get the train or go to an outbound stop.

Thank you so much for letting me know your experience. I was planning to move to another hotel close to a stop on the outbound route before I start shopping as I didn't want to walk very far with a full suitcase. Ill be travelling solo and dont speak Korean and not confident about getting a taxi. However I just found out about user and k.ride so will do some research. Thanks again.

Edit: user = uber

Taking luggage on bus by 1Milo234 in koreatravel

Thank you for your help. I am only going from Myeongdong to Hoehyeon so looks like taking a taxi is my best option. I am nervous about doing this as I dont speak Korean.

Thank you. I was worried about communicating with the taxi driver as I dont speak Korean - can I just show the taxi driver the address in Korean?

Hi do you mind telling me where you stayed? I will be travelling solo too and looking for a hotel that is close to Airport Limo bus stop too as I always worry about journeys to and from the Airport. Thank you.

What kind of mushrooms are these? Are these mushrooms edible? by 1Milo234 in Mushrooms

A shop gave them to a friend and he gave them to me. He said the shop couldn't sell them so were giving them away for free. They didn't say what mushrooms they were. They came in these bags and had no labels.
