First Week in Korea

February 10, 2009

We’ll I’ve been here for a week now, so I figured it was time for another update. This country has been great to me so far and I don’t feel homesick at all. I find the culture fascinating, and the differences charming. And boy are there ever a lot of differences! For one, people don’t […]

First Outting

February 4, 2009

I couldn’t stay in my apartment forever. 12 boxes of KD can only last for so long. haha. And I needed a few other things too, like laundry detergent. There’s a little grocery store on the complex, right next to the barber shop (woo!) and the boys were telling me that it’s not much more […]

Lock, Stock and Two Packed Bags

January 30, 2009

Well, less than 24 hours from now I’ll be leaving Saint John, NB, with a final destination of Ulsan, South Korea. Leading up to now it was still kind of surreal, and it never really sunk in, but with everything packed and people waiting for me over there it’s starting to hit me pretty hard […]

First Post.

August 1, 2008

Nothing special here, just wanted to create the first post to commemorate the creation of this blog. I don’t think I’ll be using it much since I’m not much of a writer, but I might feel compelled to chronicle my trip to South Korea in 2009… I’ll let you know! Take care, Sebastien. (Note: This […]
