On today's episode, I chat with South Korean expat Juwon and her life in Dakar, Senegal.  We talk about all things Korean, including her beloved city of Busan ("Shout out to 'Train to Busan"), the Korean language and its musicality, nuances and it's alphabet.  She tells me how she met her husband,  her move to Dakar and how she has adapted.   We also touch on the O.G of Jollof rice made by the Wolof, and what her signature dishes are.  We also discuss  the cultural similarities between Africans and Koreans, addressing stereotypes, and of course, we talk about the saying that continually inspires her.To know more about Juwon's life in Dakar, you can check her blog out.Thanks for listening to the episode.
