44 I have been working for Samsung Engineering for almost six years now since I graduated from university. So, although I was acquainted with the working culture, I was not yet acquainted with the overall Korean culture or language before coming here. I have to say that at the beginning, I had a hard time since The food is what I have been enjoying the most! The spicier it is, the more I like it! Short arm octopus, soft tofu, pork belly, beefbone soup and ramen are among my favorite Korean dishes. People often ask me if I miss Mexican food. My response is that as long as I have Korean food, I don t miss it. It s ust recently, I ventured on my rst getaway two hours away from Seoul without any help of Korean friends. In order to get there, I took a train and then a taxi from the train station to the pension where I had booked my stay. Everything went well until it was the time for me to go back to Seoul on a Sunday afternoon. I couldn t speak the language at all and I did always funny that whenever I order something There were almost no buses or taxis running not know anything about the mannerisms in spicy, the waiter keeps warning me about its on the road, and my phone had no battery Korea. But I was lucky enough to have really good coworkers who have become my good friends to help me out and to guide me and spiciness, in which case I always say It s ok, I am Mexican. left, so I decided to take a long walk with my huge yellow backpack to nd the nearest town. Not even 10 minutes after I started teach me a lot of things, for this I am really thankful. walking there was a car that stopped by: there were three young Korean university students. lthough none of them spoke uent English,

45 they managed to ask me with broken English. Where are you going? They said, Come with us! and without hesitation I jumped into the car. I was surprised when I realized that they were studying civil engineering (my major) and were living in the same area in Seoul. They were kind enough to take me to During all this time in Korea, I have realized that Mexicans and Koreans share many things in common: very passionate people, a long country history, family oriented, proud of their language, keen for spicy food and when it is time for partying, we know how to party. Korea has changed my way of thinking and Seoul, invite me over for Korean pizza ( ) and makuli (), and give me a ride home. I was amazed! On that Sunday, I ended up in a Korean restaurant drinking makuli with some folks that I just met only for a couple of hours, yet it felt like I met them in the past. my way of behaving. I feel so well adapted that things like bowing or crossing my left arm while shaking hands with people I do them without even thinking, which is always a source of jokes if I do them whenever I go back home for holidays. I have made Korea my second home, and my coworkers and friends as my big family.
