Day 4:
Hey Guys!
We just got back from a karaoke bar with the other teachers as a going away party for one of the teachers. They put us in this private red velvet room with disco lights and each song had its own hysterical Korean music video. Before karaoke, we went for dinner where Brandon accidentally put raw pig skin in his mouth thinking it was an appetizer before asking what it was...so gross- he spat it out right away!!! He learned the hard way that you're supposed to grill it on the BBQ, oops. The week has been super busy and we're glad its almost the weekend, but we love the school and the kids are too cute. I (Shayna) got a note from one of my students named June, that said I love you Ashley teacher- not my name but I guess it's the thought that counts, lol. We plan on going into Seoul this Saturday for the Buddha birthday festival which is supposed to be really awesome. We still haven't gotten around to taking pics of our place, but we'll do that soon :) Ok, we're off to bed now, all that singing has tired us out! Good night xo
With love from South Korea,

Day 1:
It's the end of of first day here in Korea and it's starting to set it that we're half way across the world. After our 13.5 hour flight yesterday, we got into town and went to dinner with our director and her family for some authentic Korean BBQ. After 12 steaks and about 45 appetizers, we had to convince her that we were too full to eat any more as she was getting ready to order the next round of food. We got home around 9:30pm with just enough energy to unpack our bedding and fall asleep. Our co-workers picked us up this morning at 8:50 so its been a long day and we're exhausted! The kids our awesome, and our co-teachers seem very nice. We went out to dinner and drinks with them afterwards and the showed us around our area. We're only a ten minute walk to work, and we're close to everything that we want or need in Bucheon. Here's a night time shot to give you a feel for the area, expect many more to come! We're off to bed now, but we'll post some photos of our awesome apartment sometime tomorrow. Good Night xo
With love from South Korea,
