Gangneung

24, Sep 2007

Hello from the East coast of Korea.  Our predicted seven hour motorcycle trip to Gangneung ended up taking more than 18 hours over two days, due to rain, confusing maps and signs, and winding mountain roads.  But we’re here, and the long journey was part of the adventure.  The scenery was gorgeous!  I’ll be taking [...]

Check it out! We just saw this great article about CouchSurfing in the New York Times!

As you probably know, we’ve been really involved in The CouchSurfing Project for over three years. Since we moved to Seoul last month, we’ve become CouchSurfing Ambassadors, and we’ve already hosted seven different people. We love CouchSurfing.
Stay tuned. Very soon, [...]

Road Trippin’

21, Sep 2007

We have lived in Korea for 14 months now, and we have hardly gotten out of the Seoul area and into the rest of Korea. Well, that’s about to change! This weekend through Wednesday is the Korean Thanksgiving holiday called Chuseok. We have work off, the motorcycle is tuned up, and we’re [...]

Clairvoyance

19, Sep 2007

It was pouring rain today. I got on the 160 bus, and my umbrella was streaming water into the aisle beside my left foot.  As I sat down, I had a vision of my umbrella popping wide open in the aisle and spraying the other passengers.  I checked that my umbrella was latched completely.
Not two [...]

Growing Up Moldovan

18, Sep 2007

Here is our newest picture of Felicia, the little girl we sponsor in Moldova. She’s so gorgeous. It’s amazing to watch her grow up through photographs. Click here to see her picture from last Christmas and read more about our background with her.
Adam and I send her emails and packages as well as [...]

Sweet & Optimistic

17, Sep 2007

I’m still sick, so I took a sick day for recovery.  After a lazy day, I’m feeling a lot better, but I’m still coughing.
We went out to our favorite Indian restaurant for dinner tonight with our friend Andrew.  It was nice to get out and fill up with all of the Indian goodness.  They played [...]

Jimjilbang

16, Sep 2007

Adam discovered last week that there is a jimjilbang just one block away from our new apartment. I’ve been sick with a cold for maybe three weeks now, so we decided that today was the day to explore our local spa. It’s perfect, and now I feel so relaxed and refreshed.
I love the jimjilbang.

I’ve mentioned [...]

City With a Soundtrack

14, Sep 2007

“We live in this cool city.  We need to go out tonight,” I told Adam when I got home from work.  Of course this makes me sound interesting, so I must be honest that most of the time, I’m the homebody face-planted on the bed after work.  But tonight, I wanted to experience our city.
We [...]
