I spent two days in Seoul last week, at an orientation workshop. They put me in a room on the top floor of the hotel -- a beautiful suite. Mark took these photos from our hotel room window. Above is the garden surrounding the hotel, and below is a skyline shot of Seoul. It spreads out for miles in all directions, but is really a beautiful city with lots of forests and parks everywhere, and through which the Han River runs.School starts on the 28th, and my classroom is almost ready. I am teaching five different classes, so my prep time is pretty demanding. But we have lots of materials and many helpful co-workers who have offered to help out. I'm excited to meet my students next week. Stay tuned, because we'll post photos next week of the amazing apartment we're moving into. Love from Korea.

wow, it looks lovely! thanks for the update...can't wait to hear more!
ReplyDeleteWhen Tyler saw these pictures he said "maybe we need to do DODs." Keep 'em comin', Kelli. You'll get us there yet :). Going to Heber Valley tomorrow. Not the same as Seoul :(.
