I picked up my updated work visa card this week, and instead of celebrating in a big way, I went home and made the closest version of my hometown stew with whatever I could find at the market 🙂. My little routine during the process was: keep all papers in one clear folder, check the appointment time twice, arrive early, and prepare one comforting meal for after. I am not giving visa advice because every case seems a bit different, but having something familiar waiting at home made the whole day feel lighter. Funny how food can make a small room in Korea feel like home for one evening.

Men shu hafta yangilangan ish vizasi kartamni olib oldim va katta nishonlash o‘rniga uyga borib, bozordan topgan narsalarim bilan tug‘ilgan shahrim sho‘rvasining imkon qadar yaqinroq variantini tayyorladim 🙂. Jarayon davomida mening kichik odatim shunday edi: barcha hujjatlarni bitta shaffof papkada saqlash, uchrashuv vaqtini ikki marta tekshirish, erta yetib borish va keyin yeyish uchun bir tasalli beruvchi ovqat tayyorlab qo‘yish. Men viza bo‘yicha maslahat bermayman, chunki har bir holat biroz boshqacha ko‘rinadi, lekin uyda tanish bir narsa kutib turgani butun kunni yengilroq his qildirdi. Taom qanday qilib Koreyadagi kichik xonani bir kechaga bo‘lsa ham uydek his qildira olishi ajablanarli.
