I’ve been in Korea for almost a year now, and lately I noticed my biggest adjustment with work is not really the paycheck, but how quickly the week gets packed. After work I always think I’ll study Korean, cook properly, maybe meet a friend, but then laundry, grocery shopping, banking stuff, and one tired evening somehow take the whole day 😅 It’s not a complaint, just a funny realization that living alone here made me respect free time so much more. Anyone else started planning small things like rest and meals almost like appointments?

Men Koreyada qariyb bir yildan beri yashayapman, va yaqinda ishga moslashishdagi eng katta o‘zgarishim maoshning o‘zi emas, balki hafta qanchalik tez band bo‘lib qolishi ekanini payqadim. Ishdan keyin har doim koreys tilini o‘rganaman, yaxshilab ovqat pishiraman, balki bir do‘stim bilan uchrasharman deb o‘ylayman, lekin keyin kir yuvish, xarid qilish, bank ishlari va qandaydir charchagan bir oqshom butun kunni olib qo‘yadi 😅 Bu shikoyat emas, shunchaki bu yerda yolg‘iz yashash bo‘sh vaqtni ancha ko‘proq qadrlashimga olib kelgan kulgili bir tushuncha. Yana kimdir dam olish va ovqatlanish kabi mayda narsalarni ham deyarli uchrashuvdek rejalashtira boshladimi?
