Questions about My Time in Busan

As I wrap up my stay in Busan, I’ll answer questions that people tend to ask me about teaching in South Korea and in Busan.
Q: Do I like Busan?
A: Yes. I really do like Busan. I like Seoul, too, but I’m not sure which I like more. I like them both for different reasons. I [...]

Chilling on My Summer Vacation in Busan

One of the good things about the English Program in South Korea, EPIK is that you usually get more days off than working for a private school.

Turmoil in South Korea

You probably would think that seeing porn in a staff meeting at work was enough craziness for the time being. Don’t worry. There’s more to come. Oh, and beware, I tend to use the word crazy, a lot especially when it fits the situation.
Soooooo here goes….
I have been traveling to the army base North [...]

Porn at School Staff Meeting

I was in the teacher’s room, trying to memorize my lines for our open class tomorrow. My co-teacher gave me a script to memorize and she was serious about me learning my lines. Other teachers and the principal and vice principal from our school will come to a particular class (we know which class) and [...]
