Describe a time you looked for information from the Internet.
You should say, when you did that, what information you searched, why you looked for it on the Internet. I'm going to tell you about a time I used the Internet to look for information about social events online, which is very useful nowadays. I had just moved to Seoul and I didn't know a Seoul, so I began searching on Facebook. I found an expat page called Expats in Seoul, which became one of my greatest resources for meeting locals and expats in the city.
I believe that social media can be a great blessing. I've now been living in Seoul for 10 months, so I began this search my first month here. I initially wanted to find a meditation group and a language exchange group, and I found that just by scrolling up and down the feed and even writing a post myself. There were countless people who informed me about events in the area. So, since my first month, I have been attending a meditation group on Thursday evenings and have met several friends via the expat meetup. Since then, I've expanded my horizons and even began regularly attending a philosophy forum on Wednesdays, and I have joined a yoga club too.
I decided to opt for the Internet to start building my social life because I didn't see many other options, as I'm a freelancer. With this said, I don't have co-workers, and I can be a bit standoffish when I go out to the bar. Although you must use your judgment when meeting people from the Internet, I think it can be a great tool when you first arrive to a new city alone. I find it to be quite an efficient way to put yourself out there to meet others. Although it can certainly be a curse at times, I certainly feel thankful for it.
