Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog. I've been teaching English in Korea for over two months now and am having a great time. I've also managed to spend Christmas in Thailand and also visited Japan briefly.
I work 2-10 everyday, teaching two or three classes of cute Korean kids aged 8-13. I enjoy teaching and am blessed to work alongside 18 other foreign teachers that are a great bunch. I've also hooked up with a local church and get to play the drums every Sunday in the worship band - this is the highlight of my week. I also am enjoying some long hikes Sunday afternoons around some mountainous trails next to a lake in my area. So between the hikes and hard runs every second day or so, I'm staying in shape.
I miss the ocean and of course my family and friends. But there's a great crew here to hang out with and there's always something to do in my free time. Last Saturday, I spent the afternoon walking around a huge fortress wall here in Suwon (40 minutes South of Seoul). The wall was built in the late 1700s and literally runs for probably close to 10 km in a loop surrounding an old town. It has large posts every few hundred meters where soldiers would be ready with bows and arrows and other weapons should the enemy approach the wall far below.
I hope you like the pics. Check out the blog for more photos and postings. Take care!
