From Korea to America and Back to Korea Again

For those of you who missed us...yes, we were back in the United States for a short period of time. From May 15 to May 29, Kim and I were farting around in Georgia, North Carolina, and Florida. We bought things, tied loose ends, and visited a bunch. It was really good to see family and friends again. After a year, South Korea becomes your reality. So when we went back to America, everything there seemed a bit dreamy at first.

Switching from a transitory job to a temporary vacation and back again has a bizarre effect on the brain. Mixed with jet lag it kinda feels like swimming.

Well, six more months to go and then it's back to America again. I've been telling everyone that it will go incredibly fast, which suggests a few things. First, I should probably write down a few things I would like to do before leaving Korea. Second, don't be too sad if you miss us because there's a bunch of cool stuff you can do while you wait! Last, if you plan on visiting us, totally go for it. Soon South Korea will become a dream within a dream.

I hope to post again soon or Kim for that matter. However, given our track record and the few remaining months left to us, expect to see us in person first, lol.

P.S. Narita International Airport in Japan was extremely expensive. We both threw down 20 U.S. dollars to exchange for Japanese Yen, thinking we could buy things to bring back home (when are we going to be in Japan again?). With the 3700 or so Yen the dollars bought us, we purchased two bottled waters, two small key chain trinkets, and a sumo-wrestler-style Russian doll set. Granted we kept a few coins as keepsakes, but a meal for two would have blown the 40 USD easily.

P.P.S. If you're going to fly for 12+ hours internationally, bump yourself one up from economy. The five extra inches of leg space and whatever else it offers will not go unnoticed by your body.
