After an easy boat ride, a nice lady from the tourist information got us onto the bus to the train station where we found someone who understood us and got on the right train!! No bullet train, but still much better than UK trains. We even managed to get a ticket and on the right subway train and exit which bought us straight to our hotel in Daengdon!!
After a long day of travelling we thought it would be nice to have an easy evening and after finding English movies on various South Ko...

... hike. We climbed to the highest point of the mountain where we had a panoramic view of the city. Oh, by the way we passed by foxholes and concrete bunkers from the war along the way, and even an area marked with land mine warnings. <br><br>We eventually wound our way up to the top of the mountain and here is the view we were rewarded with <br><br>On the way down ...

Seoul, Korea Rep. cwienke... on Sunday since the father only is home on the weekends. I was a little shocked when a friend of the mom's showed up. But I quickly figured out that they actually were planning on paying. But I insisted and insisted that I was paying. It is a good thing that I went to the bank...I had exactly the amount needed (well...with 3,000 won left)! 105,000 won for 6 people - not bad :)<br><br>We had a great time just chatting and ...
Seoul, Seoul, Korea Rep. christensenlow... Once in his office I pleaded for more than five days of drugs to which he politely declined. He did tell me I would be given and inter-muscular injection...an err what? A rather attractive nurse took me into a room and prepared a needle. I knew full well where it was going and began an internal debate as to how to go about this new scenario. Do I drop my pants now, wait until she is within striking distance, expose a small part of my cheek, or wait to see ...
Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi, Korea Rep. morpheousMost of my time in Korea for this trip has been meeting up with former students and friends. And that was the same for today. I mainly just hung out at my homestay until I was supposed to go and meet up with a student to see the play "Jump".<br><br>I probably won't win the blogging prize (I'm kinda doing this for a contest :) ) because I'm so honest about my experiences in Korea - both good and bad. But, I gotta admit ...
Seoul, Korea Rep. christensenlow... in, leaving me feeling tired and lethargic. As far as the teaching goes, I feel assured that my students will be successful with their English as a result of my fabulous teaching methods. I make sure to teach them useful English- we begin each day with them saying "Tonya teacher is thin and beautiful and smart and pretty".....hey, they came up with it on their own and I'm not going to discourage it. :) That's about all from the Land of the Morning Calm.... HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM!
Seoul, Korea Rep. truddick... a cheap flight home for August. As I was saddened about missing Robineau's wedding I realized that to be there would be worth more than any 30hr journey(x2) and the money it costs. Over the last few days I've been itching to move on to the next place in space and time, well at least here on Earth. I have been browsing jobs around the world and the opportunities are laid ...
Uijeongbu, Korea Rep. morpheousWell it's only a week until I head home now and I cannot believe how fast the past four months have gone. It's all been a bit of a whirlwind and looking back now I've had a great time here and learnt a lot about Korean culture. It's been an interesting couple of weeks on Korea, the news here has focused on two things.... North Korea and a serial killer. Despite what you might think serial killers are not that unusual in Seoul and the fellow arrested ...
Seoul, Korea Rep. linkspurrIts so interesting to live as the minority for a change. Yes, in El Paso I was a minority of sorts, but that is of course still completely different. Korean people have great pride in their race and culture, so it is a very homogenius place. As a blonde, I stick out even more. I have to say that even though there are times when I know I am being watch and talked about, I love the experience of living as a minority. My entire life I've been in ...
