South Korea

Dates Visited: 20th Oct 1997 - 19th dec 1997

Reason for visit: Business (oil industry)

I originally went to South Korea for just 3 weeks to work in the Hyundai Mipo Dockyard. The project changed and I ended up spending 3 months there, staying in a 5* Hotel. I was able to take 2 weeks off to travel around and see the country. The people were very friendly although not used to seeing foriegners very much. In the two weeks travelling I only saw one other westerner.
