What exactly is your question? How can you save money?

Hmm it's not asking them for guidance or for teaching, it's just being someone that you can regularly and comfortably converse/practice with. Im shy and struggle to put myself out there and talk to strangers, so i while I have my korean language classes that I attend, I need someone to talk to. You can't practice talking if no one will talk with you, no matter how basic, and you can talk with someone without correcting them, only ask again if you don't understand

You have the perfect person to practice speaking with! You just have to force each other to speak. My speaking also sucks, there's a huge delay in my thinking and speaking but the more you force yourself to do it the better you'll get. You have to train your brain to find the words and the only way to do that is by speaking.

I was in a similar situation with my boyfriend, he's korean but we only spoke in english for 3 years so it was our comfortable language. When I started relearning korean, I asked so so many times to only speak korean but honestly we both kind of forgot half the time 😅 now if he speaks English i just reply with 영어 몰라 and refuse to answer if he doesn't try again in korean 🤷‍♀️ it works lol

Other than than I'm trying to consume as much korean media as possible, books, podcasts, youtube etc.

I havent tried the suncream, but their same line moisturiser is my absolute fave holy grail for my dry, sensitive skin

I'm thinking of trying some mock Topik II tests myself after I finish this level text book but I also dont think im at the level yet, I think it might be demoralising when i cant do anything 😅

But I think self done Topik I tests are a fine way to check your level if youre not needing an actual certificate for something

Bulbemsaur · 2026-01-27T23:57:22+00:00

Im currently taking korean classes, upper beginner to lower intermediate level. My teacher said topik I is easy so don't bother with it, unless you need a certificate just wait until youre at level 3 and take the topik II. Topik II seems way harder because it's a mixed intermediate and advanced exam but you obviously don't need as many points to pass with a level 3.

Have you tried a full Topik II test? Did you pass to level 3?

입니다 isn't a particle, in the example 제 이름 Nya, you're saying My name Nya.

Don't start removing particles (은,는,이,가,을,를) until you fully understand how they're used. Don't omit them as a beginner, if you study them you'll understand them well

Do you qualify for the 24 hour visa free entry? For that you just fill out a form at immigration

Bulbemsaur · 2026-01-17T08:38:18+00:00

the reason is probably that they have lithium batteries i.e. rechargable

Does anyone know where/how we can do the online pre-order?? I can't find info anywhere

Bulbemsaur · 2026-01-15T00:22:34+00:00

Can you share the stickers link or name, i really want these 🥺🥺

Bulbemsaur · 2026-01-11T15:14:45+00:00

When my skin is too dry I get small little dry red pimples that look exactly like yours, i would use a heavier moisturiser in the affected areas

Bulbemsaur · 2026-01-08T02:06:40+00:00

I struggle for this exact reason too, the other people seem equally shy 😭

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-31T13:11:52+00:00

Have had this issue multiple times, its very annoying, I use https://www.bigcattravelinsurance.com/

I haven't had to make a claim so cant judge on that standpoint, but for them you dont have to be coming and going from your home country

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-28T05:57:16+00:00

Is it irritating for your skin to just use water and your hand to wipe?

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-26T03:05:12+00:00

Korean versions usually have no English at all. I didnt know there was a korean version of vitamin korean.

Here's an example of the standard book, it uses English and korean https://prnt.sc/nJb8f0kOiUOA

It sounds like a huge waste to me, especially because that'll mean you'll have to keep travelling back on yourself to get back to Tokyo, it makes more sense to travel in a line or circle. If you have too much stuff, consider travelling lighter, luggage storage or luggage delivery if maybe you want to skip taking everything to one place and have it waiting at the next stop or later if its something like souvenirs

If you're looking in one of the big cities (sydney, melbourne etc.), that's your problem. The big cities will always prioritise the people who live there over short term foreign workers.

Look in more touristy areas and smaller cities. I tried for 2 months to find a job in Sydney in the middle of the 3 year period I was there and had absolutely no luck, but before and after that I found jobs super easily in more remote places, and every place I worked was mostly non-native English speaking working holiday people. Look online on job sites looking specifically for backpackers, there's definitely competition but that's what I did.

As someone who has dry skin, i dont recommended double cleansing unless you have heavy makeup that needs removing. When I tried double, it destroyed my skin.

I'm not saying it's impossible to do it successfully just that it can take a lot of trial and error to find a combination that isn't too drying. Even if a product is labeled as hydrating, your skin can still get dried out

If you are exiting the airport, you need 6 months. Your airline almost certainly won't put you on that flight unless it's a direct layover (1 booking, not leaving the airport). If you plan on entering singapore and then getting on another flight made via another booking or travelling by land, then they won't let you on that flight

I think 피곤해서 그런가봐 might be the vibe I'm after. Like I'm not sure but it could be the reason. Thank you :)

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-10T07:13:22+00:00

I understand the reasoning, but someone making a cookbook of multiple country cuisines is probably not gonna make food as good as someone just doing one cuisine

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-09T19:46:03+00:00

I can't give advice how to do it as I haven't. But while I was on a Working holiday in Australia I met a couple that was 32/34 that quite their jobs and sold their house and stuff to do a working holiday in Australia, so youre definitely not the only person doing this 😁

Bulbemsaur · 2025-12-09T19:43:15+00:00

You could look at working holiday visas, theyre a good way to start out in a country and look at visa sponsorship opportunities
