Information about Korea

[Andine]

Hi there!

My Name is Andine and I live in Canberra Australia.  I am a regular CD here, and have a lot of fun.
I am planning to go skiing in Korea next month.  Does anyone know the ropes in the ski resorts, and whether I will be welcome there.?
Does any one have any contacts in the resorts regarding budget accomodation and travel?

Thanks Zythyra !!

I could not find a way of replying to your mail!
Just for info ... I'm pretty prominent on Crossdersserclub.com  ...
I did a search on posts here on "Korea" and came up with a bit of info.

I know I will be fine in Thailand, having been there for 3 weeks ( Dental trip ) recently.
My loose plan at the moment is :- Sold the house over Xmas ...  Sending my camper to Thailand ...    It will be my toy cupboard ... Mountain bike ... caving gear .. etc. ..... Going skiing to korea before the end of the month, ( Don't want to pack two genders of clothes),  whilst the camper is on the ocean. ... After that going to cruise Thailand for a year at least!
I'm only 67 ... and I'm free!!  Whoopee!

Thanks Gennee .. Good to see you here as well!
Was that a dig at me?   There are some lovely ski Resorts ... two of them look great, but all the accomodation that is on the official Resort site is very expensive.
I dropped into the embasy here in Canberra ... the ladies I met said that gender freedom legislation was now in place and it would be OK, but I might get friction in Seoul .. Next visit there a young bloke said that I must not crossderess at all, but that ski accomodation was cheap in villages next to the corporate hotels.
From what I have gathered so far I'd say Andine will be cool in the resorts ... and she can queen her way about as she likes .... If someone has a problem with it ... I'll crush his hand .. like I did with that mugger in Thailand!!  (God that was fun .. I've got to do that again!!)

see Ya  .... Andine!!

We have a member here from Korea, I'm hoping she will join in this discussion.

Thanks Tekla !

I hope so too ... Its nice to be prepared ... I pass pretty well here, but there is also a high level of apathy here! ... Iterestingly about 60% of the ladies "make " me ... but only about 5% of the males do .. and then its just the younger ones that do ... and they don't usually mind. The nasty goons dont usually get there as it needs a brain.
I figure that in a different society I will be even better camouflaged!  ( And the rest of the time I will smile broadly!!)

regards ... Andine!!

In a different society you're going to stand out like nothing you've ever experienced before.

Absolutely ... As A male or a female ... but I think harder to pick a CD ...
Ski resorts are a tourist mecca ... I'll fit in OK ... Besides I know about skiing ... I was the first patroller in Guthega in 1957!
In Thailand I stood out the same way and did not get made often.
Hey ... If it does not look like working I can become a boy again!

Andine!
