Korea Life

So I finally have internet in my apartment along with hot water so I am settling in.  Just a few more weeks and I can have more furniture.  A teacher is leaving at the end of Sept. and I get all her stuff.  It is very interesting here and very hard to figure things out.  Almost everything is in Korean and hardly anyone speaks English.  I never thought I would be so happy to talk to missionaries today.  Here are some photos of my apartment and the area.  I also have them on fb.



My Apartment (very small, but getting more cozy)
Door to my building, I am the window on the left

Do not travel by bus because you can't find out where to go

Huge market that is very easy to got lost in.

Yummy fish and an octopus!  Live crabs are all over as well.

Crazy red dog I saw.  I think it is a poodle.

My school is in the building on the right on the 8th floor.  The one with all the signs on it.

This is what I see every time I walk out of my neighborhood to walk anywhere.

  3. No to the peeing and yes to a drain in the floor. You guys are crazy. Unless I never want to talk to my husband (everyone speaks only Korean) I have not found one yet. I am going to attempt to learn Korean though! Miss you all!!
