Now a little over 3 months into my time in Korea
I thought you might enjoy seeing what life looks like here.
God is teaching me some good stuff for sure.
It’s not an easy season of life but it’s a good one.
Teaching 33 classes a week – Monday to Friday. (Weekends off)
In my free time rest, hike or try to explore a little bit.
Not liking the food or culture very much but have met some very nice people.
The future has become clear as well.
I will leave that for later though.
For now, enjoy the pictures!
The view of the Alaskan Wilderness on the flight to Korea.
My luxurious studio apartment. You are viewing my bedroom, office and living room.
The kitchen and entryway.
View from my apartment rooftop.
The vista area near my house overlooking the area of city I live in.
Sunset over the biggest mountain in Gumi.
Dominating that Mountain with Kyle.

***Now for the people in my life here in South Korea***

***Lastly, the pictures from my job teaching English***
My fellow staff members at our English Academy. From left to right: Chloe. Rachel. Me. Geena. Stephanie. Lauren and Josh.
I teach kids as young as 4 years old at an extra job I work at a daycare.
At the same daycare job teaching a kid the word banana.
I also have 8 classes a week using science to teach English for 5-7 year olds.
Then my day transitions to the 7 to 11 year old age group.
Teachers aren’t supposed to have favorites but this my favorite class!
Doing something called a Mindmap with 4th graders.
5th Graders.
Finally finishing off with kids as old as 16 years old.
