Travelling in Korea
Check in, catch the train, see the sights, bring something home — and tell the story afterwards
You can get around a city and order a meal. This course is the trip itself: saying you have a booking and how many nights, buying a train or bus ticket out of the city and finding your car and seat, asking how late a museum is open and asking a stranger to take your photo, asking what a souvenir is made of and having it wrapped, getting help when a bag is left on a train or a phone dies, and telling someone afterwards where you went and how it was. Seven daily lessons and almost no new grammar — nearly every sentence is built from the endings you already have. Prices, fares and opening hours are deliberately absent, because they differ from place to place; the sentence for asking them does not.
