The Exciting Start

We are in Korea safe and sound. The plane ride was just a very long nap but nonetheless a very good plane ride. The swine flu test were very simple and didnt take very long. We rented a cellphone so we can talk to relatives and people in America. Our number is 011-82-10-8061-1514. We got on a limo bus that took us directly to Songdo-dong and we...

Out on a school night! Don't tell my mom...

Maranda (my room mate from Rhode Island), Jun (my buddy set up by the university and who has now become my friend), his friend who we call Brian (his name is Jun also) and myself went out for Soju (traditional Korean alcoholic dirnk) and snacks, beer and cocktails and got to know the area near our school a bit.

Ho-hum

So I am finally in my apartment. Pretty swank if you ask me, but no amount of swank will make the homesickness go away. I miss my family and friends greatly and I don't think I am alone. Some of the other new recruits seem a bit homesick but they are enjoying the bottle. I went to a roof tome BBQ last night with my new friends. It was nice and k...

China Town and Wolmido

Well today I went to see the sea and had a wonderful 6 hour jaunt. First of all, I would like to say that the cost of this adventure was very little. $2.20 total for the trip there and back via the Incheon Subway System. In all it took about 29 minutes to reach my destination. My first stop was China Town since it was right out of the subway and...

Swimming Day

Finally, the kids were able to have some fun. Since we wanted to take the kids swimming rain or shine, we went to an indoor waterpark which was part of a bigger Kiddieland type amusement park. At first I wasn't sure if I was going to partake in the event, but it was so stinking hot in the swimming area, I couldn't imagine not swimming. But of co...

Welcome to Korea!

First Days: Sleep and more Sleep I arrived in South Korea on my birthday, April 1. Instead of reveling, laughing and enjoying the usual celebration I am accustomed to experience on my b-day, I slept and ate alone. I left for Korea from Las Vegas at 1 a.m. Saturday morning. I arrived in Incheon International Airport at 9 a.m. Sunday morning. My e...

Korea in a Nutshell

Ok, I've totally rewritten this entry multiple times now. I'm definitely trying too hard. Let's just keep it simple. I'm writing less about food. Sorry, I hadn't really noticed the focus. Thanks for pointing it out. All of you. The name of our hostel in Seoul, if I've never given it, was the Windroad Guesthouse. The colorful characters there inc...
