This is it....

18 months and 104 posts later I'm out of here. For good this time. Hard to believe.

I'm usually pretty good with good-byes and endings. I'm ready. It's time. But, nonetheless, I'm a little nostalgic when saying goodbye to all the wonderful people who have become part of my life since I've been here. This goodbye does not really have to be forever my friends.

I leave here to embark on yet another first for me. Extended solo travel looms ahead. As I run around Australia with no real plan or end in sight I hope to continue communication here when I can. Should be yet another eye opening experience of self-discovery...or just a good time.

작별 인사 서울. 그게 현실이야.
Jagbyeol insa Seoul. Geuge hyeonsil-iya.
Goodbye Seoul. It's been real.

My Last "Meet Up"

Sweet things I did this weekend at the Yong Pyong ski resort:
  • Skiing for the first time in about 15 years...I'm still not very good at it
  • Jimjilbong twice
  • Norebong
  • Bowling
  • Slept in sweet train sleeper car type bunk beds
  • Water park including sweet indoor slides, a lazy river with crazy waves in it, a pool dedicated to a wide variety of jet messaging chairs and multiple outdoor hot tubes in a variety of different colors. We also got to rent some sweet swim suites and had to buy a swim cap. We all looked pretty hot.
Good times with good people all for under $200,000 won. You just can't bet that.

Never Say Never

The ultimate example of last minute major changes that happen around here:

Megan Reddy is coming back to KC after being "gone forever" for only 1 month due to a the bunk replacement teacher they hired for Apple Class. She is only staying for 3 weeks, but that's perfect for me, as I am leaving at the same time. I don't think I have ever been this excited.

Sweet-uh.
