Please let me know if you’re looking for a author for your blog. You have some really great articles and I believe I would be a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d absolutely love
to write some material for your blog in exchange for a link back to mine.
Please shoot me an e-mail if interested. Thank you!

In reply to Tess Marie.

@Tess Marie: THANKS for sharing!!! Yes, Korea was the first place I’ve ever made hummus vs buying it out of a container! That was a labor of love, searchign for chickpeas too. I didn’t know Busan had a Middle Eastern area– I searched pretty near a whole year for a falafel! I feel like Ashley’s Restaurant occasionally has quinoa dishes (or maybe it’s couscous) but I feel like it’s gotta be somewhere. Ever tried the Foreign Mart in Itaewon? Although they’re owned by Indians, they have some foreigner foods there.

hey!
I’m also a veg in Korea, Busan actually, and we have “middle east town” and it has all of the wonderful “angelic sounds” glory of lentils, couscous, falafels and beautiful beautiful chickpeas, (meaning i can finally have hummus again)
Im still on the hunt for quinoa.
Im not sure if you have anything in your Daegu like that? Maybe you can ask around, if not, if you ever head to Busan its located at Sasang Station. walk for about 5 minutes and there are 3 wonderful tiny little shops that have everything the heart desires and a flawless all you can eat indian buffet!
good luck!!

In reply to Sally S.. @Sally S. Yes, every bit of home DOES help, especially with the acclimation. I tend to think a slow induction is easier than a quick one.

Luckily Mexico is more similar to the US than Korea in terms of eating habits, I think. I still can’t find root beer though!

Oooh tampons! Here they sell them, but not a wide variety. I think many Mexicans believe tampons are harmful or something :S

Glady you found some of your fave foods!
