Royal Palace




Well, Pavlos and I really made sunday count. We visited the Palace and a couple of museums, toured many parts of the city by subway. I got my workout for the day, thats for sure!

I started my training today in Seoul and met a whole bunch of other teachers, we out for korean style BBQ, which is quite delicious. There is a section with all the western staples, starbucks, macdics, BK, KFC, and of course STRIPPERS lol. We looked for the gay bar but were unsuccessful, it was a sunday however..........still 10million people, you would think there would be something lol. The city is MASSIVE jungle of concrete, everyone keeps telling me I will love Busan comparatively. I met a nice couple from cape breton and another that just came back from peace corps in Kryzigstan. LOVE ya all !

First couple of days in Korea



well, well, well.

fun times in downtown seoul !!
I saw korean ninjas guarding an american compound to girls taking snapshots with their cameraphone sans flash so as to trick the naive canadian. little school kids shouting out on the street, HELLO, HELLO......to almost being run over on the sidewalk by guys smoking cigarettes with no helmet on their scooters. LOL

wild times. Still trying to adjust to the 13 hour time difference. going to check out some museums today with my military attache Pavlos hehehehe ( can't wait to see him in his fatigues :P )

will check back in soon, I think everyone can write messages off this site. Use it, great way to keep in touch

lots of love,
