I've been living in this country for more than a year and a half now, something I didn't expect to do when I left Canada back in January 2009. I certainly didn't think I'd still be in Daejeon, and without residency, and travelling in these little spurts. Some days I'm desperate to get out of Korea. I don't know why; I'm not homesick and I have no big plans elsewhere. My life here is relaxing and simple. It's just easy to blame bad days on all the cultural q...

It has been almost a month since my last real blog entry! Life is back to being sunny and bright, after a few rainy weekends!
