We usually go to different areas of Seoul, walk around exploring, eat out, go hiking (they are fanatics about hiking here, I'll post a video later, hilarious. It's their 'unofficial' sport here. You can buy $2 DVDs here so I've been watching a ton of movies...heaven to me:) Dianne has been so helpful to me! She's showed me all around, told me some tips on Korean etiquette & manners, & really helped me get settled in. She's so much fun, oh & she's been my running buddy.
Here's my little bungalow.
My apartment is small but cute. Extremely small, but it's cozy. I'll only be in it another month & then I'm moving in to Christina's apartment which is much bigger. But it's cute right??
Christina's has a big bed & even a couch that folds out to a bed (so you can come & visit me!!!).
Take a look at my horrible Christmas tree, it's so lanky. But I had to have one, it was only $2!
This is my Gemini class, aren't they cute? Luke is super cute, but he's a stinker!!
Their english is pretty good. I love them though!! We have 2 Finish kids, Frans & Olivia.
This is my Taures class. Michelle is my favorite, she's the short hair on the left. SO cute!! Oh & I LOVE Dawn (next to her).
Here's my Aires class, they speak english very well! They are a lot of fun!
We had Indian food this night. Some of the best indian food I've ever had! So good!
These are 2 of my co-teachers. Serene is Korean, she has lived in Canada & Australia. She's so much fun!
And Christina has been in Seoul almost a year & will be returning home to Pitsburgh soon.
These pictures were taken from the TX/Arkansas football game in Austin a couple of months ago.
I went to the game with Courtney & her brother, Blake. Was a fun weekend, but Courtney wasn't feeling too well. Austin is always fun to visit though:) That girl cracks me up! I LOVE being around her!
K, well that's about it from me. I just got back from walking all over Seoul. My friend, Emily from MN, has a friend Christina, who I ran a race with a few months ago, has a brother that just moved here. He's only been here a couple of days so we hung out. We going to church tomorrow, Itaewon International Church. Hope we like it! I would LOVE to get involved with a church here!
Oh yeah, one of my friends & I booked a flight to China during Christmas break!! Can't wait! We're flying in to Beijing, then we're taking a train to Shanghai & then all the way down to Hong Kong! We'll be in Hong Kong for New Year's!! I can't wait! We'll get to see a lot of the east coast! It's like 1000 mile train ride!
I finally got a cell phone! And I got it connected with skype so now people in the states can call me free of charge & it will forward to my Korean cell phone! I got to talk to family last night & it was amazing! Felt so good! So, let me know if you need my number & you can give me a ring! Would love to hear from you! MANY BLESSINGS TO YOU!
