Monthly birthday potluck (Ben and Eomeoni). Eomeoni was gifted a "Miss Korea" sash by Minji. She proudly wore it all night. |
Made hanji lanterns in Insadong with Michaela (her last week at Connexus!) |
N Seoul Tower with KyungHee and her family (visiting from Winnipeg). |
Went to a bunch of themed cafes…that's a white racoon in my chair. |
Cat cafe rules :) |
Really big stuffed poop taking up a whole table at the "poop cafe." Sarah wanted to buy a toilet shaped mug but they were sold out. |
Walked around Insadong / Gyeongbokgung Palace ... |
…and around Dosim (hometown; parts of it feel rural). |
Successfully bussed to Sockcho, land of Pokemon Go. |
Did the Ulsanbawi hike at Sworaksan National Park. (Google pictures! I was sad it was foggy for us). |
Found a nice semi-secluded portion of beach and read the entire Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and looked for sea glass from washed up soju bottles :) |
Did a day program at Myogak Temple to learn more about Buddhism. |
Ate some good food... |
…admired some murals and traditional HanBok in the university area (these steps are being remodelled but used to have a famous koi fish painting on them). |
Made sure Sarah had a jimjilbang experience. |
Said goodbye and returned to work with three new teachers (Mark, Amanda and Graeme…more pictures to come later for August. |
