Katie's Wandering Seoul

I have learned a few things in my week here in Korea, here they are... 1.  Korea is very cute (they wrapped a bow around my pizza box)! 2.  I will most likely offend someone here very soon...they have very different ways and traditions! 3.  I apparently am not from America, because I do not look, act, or talk like an American. 4.  No one knows where I am really from, and it's really starting to confuse me. 5.  I know a few words in Korean (hello, thank you, and idiot are down pat!  They are all useful words!) 6.  Wilson is a very fun name for my co-teachers to say, they are absolutely loving it and I don't think I have a first name anymore! 7.  I am in love with South African accents....I should probably live there so I can hear it all the time! 8.  There is a soccer team in my city, which I am very excited for! 9.  Korean people are some of the nicest/sweetest people I have ever met. 10.  I am terrible at atte...

Back of my charm Front of my charm They take their cell phone charm making very serious!  We got to watch the process of making tofu, I've got to say I never knew it was such a long process! We have had a lot of cafeteria food since we have been here, I think they are trying to ease us into the change of food. It's been pretty good so far. The day of the field trip was by far the best...
