WELCOME TO THE BLOG OF SEOUL TO SOUL!

The Journey Begins

1 week ago today I boarded a plane from South Korea to return to the United States after 1 year of teaching English as a Second Language in Asia. 2008 went by so fast and Korea now seems like a distant memory. I will always cherish the time spent in Korea. Now, it is time to keep it movin' and see what life has to offer in 2009 in America.

Thank you for following my blog about my life in South Korea.

NOW THE REAL JOURNEY BEGINS...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

December Farewells

I have 4 more days before I return back to America and it is an exciting and scary feeling. South Korea holds a special place in my heart and I am sad to be leaving, but at the same time I am so excited to go home and see my family and friends and get ready for the next phase of my life. This year has flown by, but in this short amount of time I have learned so much about myself and gained so much from Korea, family, friends, and my new korean chingoos (friends). Thanks Korea for everything!

Here are a few pictures from my last month in Korea:
