Furniture

We bought a couch!

When we came to Korea, we were told our apartment was furnished. We had a bed and a couch. In fairness to the tale we were told apartments in Korea are smaller than in the states so you cant comfortably fit a bunch of crap in here like you would be able to do at home. We had a decently nice leather couch, but I grew weary of always having to share my leg space with Jack. ha ha We finally gave in. My friend Katherine took me across town to a used furniture store and I purchased a two piece sectional. Now our apartment actually feels kind of homey. I like it. It is a bit more cramped, but it is totally worth it. :) We haven;t bought much furniture since we have arrived. We have only bought a Korean dining table (i.e. it is only a foot tall) and this couch. Both were really affordable. We waited till after our first month so we would have so money. When we first came we were so broke. ha ha It is nice to actually have some spending money and still pay off bills. I could get used to this.

The couch was only 100,000.00 won which is roughly 80-90 bucks.
Table was only 35,000.00

I am very pleased with our investment.
