Korea Busan Mission
Korea · Asia
4 Seasons. Hot, humid summers and COLD, humid winters. The humidity makes the cold feel colder.
Bring wool socks and fleece lined tights (Sisters). Waterproof boots like Blundstones are great for both Elders and Sisters and are easy to remove when entering homes. It is cold, so warm gloves, ear muffs, hand warmers are helpful.
Bring enough toothpaste and deordorant to last the entire mission! They do not have similar products there. Also Sisters: tampons are hard to find.
If the missionary is tall or larger in stature, it is hard to find clothing there, but otherwise coats and clothing in general is cheaper there.
