My place

I know you've all been waiting to see pics of where I live. So where they are. I live in a very small one room apartment, which we would call a studio but here its simple called a one room.




It looks so much better in black and white.




You can see my washing machine one the deck.....and yeah I know I need to clean up.

Chuseok

Sept. 25 is Korean Thanksgiving/Harvest festival called Chuseok. So no school Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday....great. Everyone I work with is going to spend it with family where they will make too much food and honor dead relatives and grandparents, so I'll pretty much be alone or hanging out with a bunch of Canadians (I know : /) because all restaurants and stores will be closed.

Anyway, the school went on their Sept. field trip to a Korea cultural museum where the kids had to wear hanbok or the traditional dress and they all learned how to bow and serve tea. It was really cool from an outsiders point of view.
