A day's adventures!

At the urging of some dear friends, Dan and I started Korean lessons last saturday. We're taking lessons at the Korean Language Education Culture Center (or K.E.C.C.), located in Apgujeong. We took placement tests and fortunately I am no longer considered a "beginner" (yes!!), as I would hope after living in Korea for over a year.

So we frolicked off to Apgujeong for our first lesson. The course is pretty intense-- it's four hours long every Saturday and is conducted entirely in Korean. I think I'm going to like the course-- it's just the fire under my buns that I need to do some language learning.

After the lesson finished (whew!) we met our friends Sam and Jenn for lunch.

Oh, and this guy: his name is Salut. I'm discovering that studying Korean in the park is a magnet for all sorts of interesting Koreans.

Later that evening, I joined Arne Von Brill to do some photography of their recording session in the studio.

Enjoy the photos.

Cheers!

A beginning

In this blog, I shall attempt to document my life and experiences as an expat in South Korea, as well as showcase my photography.

I am not a kimcheerleader (though I do enjoy kimchee), nor am I a disillusioned naysayer of all things Korean culture. Instead, I seek the middle way and try to approach the world with an open mind and open heart.

Stay tuned for my musings and photography.

Cheers!
