Adam left :-( Now I'm the only English teacher at my school. Friday night was really mellow, I think I was tired after work. Saturday morning my bosses and their kid drove me to Adam's (now unoccupied) apartment where I was able to pick up some of his old things (little water heater, floor desk, plant, cheesecake, kitchen supplies, trash can, throw rug, vacuum cleaner). Got back, unpacked (still haven't washed all of the plates and utensils), then went to meet up with another expat who is leaving in ~6 weeks to buy a blender and electric heater from her. She and some other expats in Miryang were planning to go to Daegu that night and she invited me to go with them. I said sure, went home, unpacked more, and a few hour later zipped down to the train station to get up to Daegu. There were about 15 maybe 20 people there from the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand all having a wonderful time. Caught a late train back to Miryang and have spent much of Sunday relaxing, cleaning, and organizing all of the new stuff I acquired.
I am enjoying life here and missing everyone back home, it's an odd feeling.
Finally some pictures! Authentic Korean food:
Bibimbab for lunch
Korean BBQ for dinner
What is Daegu and what did you do there? How was your first day of work?
ReplyDeleteThe food looks amazing. Miss you!
Daegu is the 4th largest city in Korea and I bar-hopped with the group to three or four different places. It was kind of weird... some of the expats were, I think, somewhat disrespectful to the establishments; perhaps it was their personality, perhaps it was over indulgence, maybe it was a fluke. As I learn more, I'll keep you posted :-) Miss you too!!
