Ugh! My nutrition in Korea is TERRIBLE!

I feel disgusting and sickly here in Korea. The air is aweful and I have no cooking opportunites, seeing as all I have is 2 burners, 2 pots, and a mini fridge. The fruit and veggies here taste kinda gross sometimes- flavorless and lacking. And expensive!

As a result, I pretty much only eat things to fill my stomach and just barely make it by- and end up getting sick all of the time! I used to be able to eat the Korean food but have had stomach problems the last month and a half so I have been unable to eat anything spicy, with caffeine, or fatty. That pretty much limits me to eating..... nothing in this country!

I am going to be sooooo hungry when I finally come back to the United States!

Healthy Graffiti

In a dirty, dingy hallway somewhere in Itaewon, someone is concerned that we should eat healthy foods. So here lies the cutest and healthiest wall art of all time:)

Street Vendor in Suji

I am always interested in the street vendors in South Korea with an equal amount of admiration and pity. On one hand, they are their own boss and don't give a #$*! where they park their goods to sell. On the other hand, they are probably poor has hell and it terrible health from sitting in the same place all day long in all sorts of terrible weather.

This lady in Suji is always right outside of Dunkin' Donuts selling her veggies and whatnot. The whatnot is included here. I think those little things are silk worms. All I know is that they were gross and they smelled bad.
