... Hwanggeumjeong. Unfortunately, the restaurant signage was only written in Hangul. Fortunately, I've been learning to read Hangul (a little bit) and I found the restaurant! We went in side, and it turned out to be a traditional sit down place, so we removed our shoes at the door, as is good etiquette. Then we sat on the floor at the low table. We ordered pork ribs, which were then brought out raw and cooked on the open grill in the middle of ...

... temples. There were plenty of people about, despite it being a working day, although the majority of them were twice my age.

After climbing about 700m the hike became a lot more strenuous, and I found myself using metal cables to haul myself to the peak. The view from here was stunning, although marred my the smog below in Seoul. Despite that, it felt like I was twice as high as I actually was, most likely as I'd climbed ...

... 8216;t be anymore Scottish!). Not lucky in itself but it turned out that he had just arrived in Korea after having spent 4 years living in South America, so we were able to grill him for lots of details about the best places to visit and tips for travelling there. Then, the day of our flight, as we were wilting in the summer heat waiting on our bus to the airport, a taxi stopped for us and offered to take us to the airport for almost ...

... gentle expectations, and over all they just want me to take care of their kids. Oh yeah, I know which student did his best to convince his mom that it's ok to wear different coloured socks because Kevin Teacher does. I know who is generally curious about me as a person and how he asks his mom if Kevin Teacher is married and does he have kids, a feat he is not able to do in English. The rest of the week seemed to fly by. Friday night I watched a movie with Melissa and ...

... by my students - they'd even drawn me a map, bless them! It was a bit annoying to find out that it didn't serve alcohol, but evenso we had a good time singing songs by Oasis, The Verve and...Rick Astley! Andrew got into it as well, despite the usual reservations beforehand... Friday began with a welcome sleep in, before we embarked upon a day of shopping. Our first destination was Sinsa dong to try and find Seoul's solitary Stussy shop, but it proved fruitless. It was ...

... at times. On the flip side it is also exciting to hear English words from their mouths and excellent listening skills on the improvement. I have to pick a song for my class to perform in March in front of the whole school as all classes will do. My grade one class is always a nice relief as they have had three or more years of English under their belts. I have started to tell stories in the class to stimulate their minds and ...
