I tend to gravitate toward expensive places to visit. I want to go to Tokyo next year and practice "Osokunatte sumimasen." But first I have to rack up enough mileage and work my a** off.

Everything is getting ridiculously expensive, but at least Seoul is going down in rank even if its prices are going up, lol. What’s sadder is that the price doesn’t phase me, lol.

I read from a news report or blog a while back that Starbuck's sales had actually gone down when they reduced their prices, meaning that most Koreans will not touch an imported product if its priced similarly to a local product. In comparison with Filipinos who also love buying imported stuff, we at least don't see the price as the only factor, most Filipinos still have the brains to compare and check out value for money. ** my opinions do not generalize all Koreans but are reflective of the opinions of most of my close Korean friends.
