So Far in South Korea
What I have been doing so far
I flew in on February 28th, and started training the very next day, so my first week consisted of a lot of settling into my apartment and getting into the routine of the school. On my first weekend, I was able to travel into Seoul and see The War Memorial of Korea. It was really something awesome to see! This week I was able to spend a fun night with all of my co-workers, and celebrated St. Patrick's day! Overall, I've been doing a lot of settling in, and meeting some really great people. Luckily, I really enjoy my fellow teachers, and it's been great becoming part of a new city with some fun people.
This weekend I also went to immigration, and will finally be able to get some very useful things once my immigration card comes in (like a cell phone plan and a local bank account!)
The War Memorial of Korea
War Memorial Dome
A memorial dome for all of the countries that participated in the Korean war. Inside was really cool to see.
Kim Il-Sung's limousine
The car was given to a U.S. general's wife who sold it in the U.S. The limo was found a few years ago in New Jersey.
