Jihye's Birthday Yogurt


Bought at the market today (Jihye's Birthday!!).  30% yogurt that she absolutely loves.  The whole big container cost about a buck.
(The beer was mine...just your standard 8.1% alcohol content Russian beer)

We also had a good chuckle when our host Evelina walked past the open door to our room and saw Jihye sitting on the floor having her yogurt.  "What's wrong?!?", she exclaimed.  Apparently sitting on the floor is unheard of in Russia.  She was sincerely puzzled at Jihye's 'odd' behavior and didn't seem to accept that we all do it all the time in Korea.  Culture shock 101.
