KOREA

We departed from Toronto on July 23rd at 2:40 pm and landed in Icheon, right by Seoul, at 5:55pm on Monday July 24th. Definitely a lengthy flight. Since landing, the jet lag has been fierce. However, our bodies seem to be adjusting pretty well thus far. We have started at Herald Language Institute, which is our new home away from home, Monday to Friday that is.

We arrived at just the right time because we have a term break at the school, meaning, we have a four day weekend this weekend! So, after being booted from our apartment on Saturday for wallpaper and flooring repairs (which were done extremely quickly!) we decided to embark on an adventure in No-Won Gu...the area in which we live.

As you can see, franchises have made their way across the Pacific. And really...we're not complaining!

Our next two days off we are going to continue exploring and see what Seoul has to offer!
