Welcome

Welcome to the blog. As many of you know, I am moving to Korea on Sunday morning. I will be living in Yongin, South Korea and teaching English at Dong Mak Elementary School. While I am living in Korea, I will regularly be posting pictures and thoughts on my experiences.

Needless to say, I am excited, anxious, and a little overwhelmed by the realization that I am actually leaving in about 36 hours. That said, my predominant feeling is excitement. I am especially looking forward to meeting my co-teacher, moving into my new apartment, and starting teaching. My first day in the classroom will most likely be Tuesday. I am anticipating that most of my students will know more English than I know Korean. We'll see.

Wish me luck.

I'm glad to hear your suspending your campaign to return to Korea to help solve this global credit crisis.

You took off about an hour and a half ago and I was just doing some quick math - with the international date line, time zones, warp whistles, etc. you should be landing soon? Is that right!?

Sean, I think your confused. The eighteen hours of flying on feels like and hour and a half, it doesn't actually take that long.
