WE'RE HERE!!!


We are here! The first picture is us at the Minneapolis Saint Paul airport right before we left for our trip. All went well with the flight. We got here safely with all of our luggage, which is a feat in itself. The second pic is what met us here when we arrived. Mr. Wong (our school's Director) along with one of the teachers (Jenni) picked us up and got us settled in. We love it here! It has everything we could want, our personal fav so far, free national WiFi. Our school took us shopping, on them, to get all the essentials to get us going. They are even buying us cell phones, a web cam, and told us there would be more to come. We are pretty exited. Our apt is one block from the school and is right in the middle of downtown Yongin, which has everything from authentic Korean food to Starbucks. Thanks to the free internet we should be able to keep up with this blog with no effort. More to come soon including pictures of our place and school.

  6. I am so happy to hear your apartment is comfortable and your surroundings are so beautiful with the mountains around you. Sounds like you're in an upscale region of Korea. I'm sure you're going to be taken well care of by the school and your Korean hosts. Glad to hear your first days there have gone very well. Good luck with your training. Enjoy your year-long adventure to the fullest. My thoughts and prayers are with both of you. Take care!!
