Toilets

THIS is what I alluded to in my video from our home bathroom! Koreans must have the cleanest bung holes in the world! Two different warm wash sprays, blow dry, heated seat, and a deodorizer! Sounds like a hair-dresser for your arse!

Lunch

Lunch is always interesting at school. We have International and Korean options every day, though both usually involve rice. I love our food, it's what food should be like back home in schools. It's homemade, balanced, always incorporates fresh salad and never has sweets. The cafeteria distributes an educational flyer with recipes and health tips. Now if I could just get used to boiled octopus.

Self Service Bars

I love this idea, grab your beer out of the self service fridge. Walk it over to the register ( grabbing some popcorn along the way) to add it to your tab, and take it back to your table. The only question is, who drinks Icehouse, Honey Brown, or Red Dog? Good thing they stock good Euro beer.

House In Songdo

Our House

http://youtu.be/RKYH4HYZCtg

We are indeed moving on up. Living in this deluxe apartment in the sky is a long ways from our cabin in the woods of NC that we lived in while working for Outward Bound. We're not totally sure of ourselves in this place, but we like the space and the kitchen is going to make a great place to brew beer. Strange things like a TV and a kitchen table are here, it's all very unsettling. And the technology is ridiculous, the whole apartment is full of touch screens and Electronic gadgets that speak to us in Korean. See for yourself!

(I can't get the youtube videos to embed, so I posted the house movie in a separate post above)  Now, who is going to join us over here in Korea?  It's a great country, and a perfect stop along the way to the rest of Asia.  We live next to the airport, so it's all easy and good!  Come visit, we certainly have room for you!
