Back in Hwacheon

So, I've returned from 26 days of fun- traveling to Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. I really enjoyed learning about new cultures, seeing new places, and being a tourist.

I've returned back to the homestay, and have been preparing for a new school semester. I only have four months left of my grant year- and I have such mixed emotions. Truthfully, I'm ready to come home and start teaching ag., but I also want to make the most of my last four months. Here is a list of things I want to do before I leave:

Start WWOOFing (an organization I have joined to work on farms throughout Korea)Attend a pro soccer game
Hike to the top of Mt. Halla (on Jeju Island)
Go white water rafting
Temple stay at a Buddhist temple
Spend time with friends
Hike Mt. Seorak
Visit the East Sea
Go to some festivals including the Strawberry Festival, Bamboo Festival, and the Cherry Blossom Festival
Enjoy a water park in Seoul
(I also need to do a little thing called saving money!)

So you can tell that I have an action packed four months ahead. I know that the time will go so fast. My goal- to enjoy this while it lasts!

I hope you are all doing well- I miss and love you.
