Last night I went out partying (as I do each Saturday night)
I started the night out by meeting my new football friend from New Zealand to watch the World Cup at a Mexican bar ran by a bunch of Canadians. We watched Germany whoop up on Argentina and chatted about American Soma Islands football (or lack of)
I then met up with my friend from Croatia after the game, her friends from America wanted to go to this club to dance, I hate dancing and her friends so I declined and stayed at the bar. Turned around met a lady from Canada.
Now one thing about where I live, when I party down town the night life here is a HUGE MIX OF CULTURES. However generally speaking each person has those things in common:
* All Expats are well traveled, Greece, Dubai, Australia, Japan, Germany, etc they've been there done that
* They are used to meeting new people
* They love doing it
* They aren't shy about it
Now for this purpose we'll go ahead and call me German
So here I am at this bar, in Korea with a lady from Canada and her friend from America.
Her friend gives her a call and lets them know they are at another bar, we go there.
Her friend is actually a guy from Dubai, and his supervisor from England (they teach English as do 90% of the foreigners in this country)
Two individuals go to the bar to get 5 drinks, they return with 7 drinks and 2 new people both from Australia.
We enjoy our drinks and another friend gets a call and off we go to another bar to meet some new friends.
We arrive and met 1 Korean guy, 1 Korean girl, and one guy who is from Holland
This is how the night ended:
1. German
1. Canadian
1. Dubai
1. England
1. Australia
2 Koreans
1 Holland
1. American
In addition to the person from Croatia and New Zealand
Good times!
