Mom's Visit to Korea!


This past month my mom came to see me! We had a great time. We ate a ton of food and drank lots of cheap Korean beer. Here are some pictures from her visit.


We went to Seoul , so of course we had to go to the cat cafe in Hongdae.



My co-teacher let my mom come to school for the day. It was fun to see the kids interact with her and let her see what I do.



I took her downtown for some traditional Korean drinks - like tequila in a glorified zip-lock!


We spent a day in Gyeongju getting some culture.












It was a fantastic trip; I wish I had taken more pictures!

Family bonding - back to my hometown!

America is fantastic! The last time I posted was a month ago. I've been insanely busy! See:


This is me ripping down wallpaper. It's part of family bonding time, and that is what this post is all about. These are all pictures from my trip to my hometown.

My parents are so great, they also had a barbecue for me. We ate American food, drank Canadian beer, and played Michigan card games.


Small children like my Korean masks.

My dad and I went to a shooting range and shot zombies.






We ate good food and delicious drinks.



It was a wonderful adventure and exactly what I needed. I am so happy that I got to spend so much time with everyone, and everyone set aside time to see me. I truly have some amazing people in my life and am so grateful for them.

Now, I have already left Michigan. I'm traveling to Washington DC for a few days before flying back to Korea. Expect a few more blog posts soon wrapping up my trip home - including my college town, Pittsburgh and NYC, and DC!
