                    <title>Cambodia</title>
                    <description>Cambodia is a country I knew very little about. I39d heard of Pol Pot but that was about it. So when my friend Rhys said he would come out to visit during my 2 weeks holiday for Chinese New Year called 39Tet39 here we decided to head to Cambodia to find out what it had to offer as Vietnam tends to shut down during the Tet holiday. We set off with no real plan as we were meeting up w</description>

                    <description>Thought I39d do a little update on nonschool related things and the few outings that I have been able to go away on...So I have managed to get out and about a bit over the past couple of months. I went on a day trip to the Cu Chi tunnels one weekend which was interesting. This was an extensive network of underground tunnels which the Viet Cong guerilla fighters used with great success against </description>

Places in no particular order include Seoraksan Jeju Tongyeong Bulguksa Anapji Haeundae Jinju Lantern Festival Seokbulsa Eulsukdo Naganeupseong Folk Village DMZ and North Korea Busan Fireworks Festival and the Dadaepo Fountain of Dream.

                    <title>My 10 Favourite Things About Korea</title>
                    <description>My time in Korea has come to an end and I39ve loved every minute of it. It is a wonderful country with welcoming people a rich culture and beautiful scenery. It is certainly very quirky and although many people find certain things annoying I loved all the weird things I came across. So I thought it would be good to write a list of the things I loved most about Korea so that hopefully you</description>

                    <title>Good Morning Vietnam</title>
                    <description>So my year in Korea came to an end and you might be wondering where I am now. Well I decided to head to Saigon in Vietnam for a while and try and get a job here as an English teacher. Unfortunately it was proving very difficult to find out any information about it on the internet so I decided to just come here and wing it. Some friends had come before me and gave some good reviews so it was wort</description>

                    <title>Goodbye Korea</title>
                    <description>So I left Korea a few days ago and there39s a bunch of stuff I never got round to writing about  I tried to cram in so much stuff in my last few weeks so there39s a fair bit I missed out So here we go...I waited until my second to last weekend in Korea to finally go and do the tourist thing in Seoul properly. We had booked a trip to the DMZ Demilitarised Zone for the Saturday which I wa</description>

                    <description>Now it sounds like something your dog might do but Chuseok is actually the Korean thanksgiving day and luckily for us it meant a 5 day holiday. So me and a few friends rented a car and went on a bit of a road trip. As you can imagine driving in Korea is slightly different to driving at home but I really enjoyed the style of only worrying about what is in front of you and letting whoever39s</description>

                    <title>Jeju An Island of Three Abundances Three Lacks and Three Beauties</title>
                    <description>Sitting about 100km south of the mainland there is a small island often referred to as the 39Korean Hawaii39. It39s called Jejudo and due to it39s slightly more exotic nature and natural beauty it is famous as a Korean honeymoon spot. Because of Jeju39s location off the coast of Korea the culture and language is slightly different to that of the Korean peninsula. I39ve heard</description>

                    <description>So it39s October and the weather is cooling down at the same rate as it heated up on the way to summer. When I first arrived in Korea I never heard the end of 39You know we have four seasons here39 to which I would feign interest but was privately thinking 39Yeh whatever we do too big deal39. But I take it all back the changes of the seasons here are actually pretty dramatic.</description>

                    <description>So I haven39t really been updating what39s been going on in school mostly for the reason that it39s the same old same old. But over the last few months there39s been a few changes and a few things that have made me laugh a lot so figured I may as well share some of it with you.The beginning of July was our open class and the time leading up to that was largely taken up with prepari</description>

                    <title>Exploring in the Philippines</title>
                    <description>The lack of surf has been driving me crazy and so I decided to go searching for waves elsewhere. I bought a flight to the Philippines for my summer vacation in the hope I might finally score some good surf. My friends were all heading to the Philippines too but not to an area known for its surf so I ditched them like the good friend I am and made for a more surfy area. Who needs friends when y</description>

                    <title>Temple Stay</title>
                    <description>I have been wanting to go on a temple stay for ages now and I finally got the chance to go one weekend recently. The opportunity came from a temple in the north of Busan that runs cultural events for foreigners and this was their annual temple stay. So on Saturday afternoon I exchanged my jeans for a pair of the baggy grey monk equivalent and set about trying to find enlightenment in the space</description>

Literally over one weekend the weather has changed into beautiful 20 degrees weather and all the trees and flowers are blossoming like crazy.
