Our team name... |
Korea is full of festivals. This one, "Sharing Life Festival" was in Daegu and since many of us were still getting acclimated to Daegu we formed a team!
The first part of this day was a scavenger hunt. This involved doing some different cultural things, but also finding things here in Daegu. For instance, we needed to find a matching couple...( that was easy), a person playing a video game on their phone, a mother with a baby on her back, and much much more. We had over an hour to see how many we could get. We didn't win but we had fun trying to find all of the things listed. We didn't do the "donate blood" one though...
After the scanvenger hunt, they provided food that came from multiple different countries, and there was a DJ and paint. It was a bit of an odd combination of events, but we made the most of it and had fun... After the paint, soju might have been involved to increase our dance skills.
My favorite quote of the night came when we were all sitting in a circle after the DJ/dancing and what I presume was a homeless Korean man came up to us and wanted some soju. We gave him a shot, and he motioned for more...So we gave him another shot, and he motioned for more... This time Chris turned to him and said... "Well, can't you say please??" He said this knowing that the guy would have no idea what he just said and I cracked up to the point of tears! ahaha! I guess you had to be there...
