Greetings, internet denizens! No doubt you have found your way here through some form of social spamming. No doubt also, you have heard my repeated insistence that "I will totally" make a blog, not actually believing that I would totally make a blog. Well, here is said blog, and here shall I record (with some semblance of regularity) my adventures while living in Seoul, South Korea teaching English.
Today is August, 7. I leave on the morning of the 10th (Friday), and arrive on the evening of the 11th. For the next week after my arrival, I'll be finding an apartment, going through teacher training, and trying to figure out basic Korean so I can at least say hello to my neighbors (even if hello is all I'll be able to say). For the next year, I'll be teaching English while living alone in a city where I don't know anyone and don't speak the language. My goals are as follows: teach English like a champion, learn and speak Korean like a champion, make friends like a champion. Also maybe learn how to make Korean food, since it's so very delicious. I'm going to try to travel and make a few side-trips back to Japan to see my host family.
Right now, there isn't much to tell because I haven't done much. That will soon change. For now, I hope you enjoy reading my future blog posts.
