Ahh, i love reading this from here, at your house in Korea. When you get home from school soon I can ask you more questions, in real life, and see ALL your pictures! :) I love reading your stories. Thanks for writing them!!
Once again, you have out done yourself in the telling of your adventures!! I continue to be so amazed and proud of both of you for striking out and doing what you want to do!! You are an inspiration to me!! Thank you so much for blogging Bet! You'll never know how much it means to me! Love you!
Yay! I heart Kanchanaburi! Taking the tour was probably a smart move. It's to bad you guys didn't have more time! Usually we ride motorbikes from the city to the falls, it's such a relaxing and beautiful ride. Looking at your pictures makes me want to go to the falls so badly. Then next I assume you went to the beaches in the south since you flew? It's such a mystery! Can't wait to hear more :)
Yay for BKK! No problem! And just to be fair I did warn you about the Tuk Tuk drivers, lol :) And the really unfortunate thing is Khao San Road is so close to the Grand Palace! I'm glad you got to see it all though. And isn 't Wat Arun amazing? Scary as heck to climb up (and down) but amazing. Can't wait to hear about the rest of your trip!
Yay for detours! Awesome little detour! I can't wait to hear all about your time in Thailand! I miss it so much but I know you guys are going to have some great stories :)
Yay for pictures!!! And yay for vacations!! And yay for skype; it was wonderful to talk last night!! Thanks for always being so thoughtful and keeping me posted about your lives!! I mailed your Christmas package today; no telling when you will get it!! I love you, Bet!! Say "hi" to Jake for me!!
Hey there Lol, we saved up to get the planner when I was in Thailand too. It didn't look as cute as yours though. And sorry to hear about Vicki. That must have been a sad sad day. When you get back to America, and before I take off we should meet up again. Maybe at Panera??? So we can hear all about each others adventures. Have fun on your upcoming trip to a tropical paradise!
Oh, Bet! I love your blogs and I know they take so much time and effort!! But we all really appreciate them! I'm so excited about your upcoming trip and hope you have the most wonderful time! The Fall sounds like it's been a roller coaster of emotions but I'm so proud of the way y'all handle everything! I love you!! Jeanne
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! I love the pictures and all of the memories!! Can't wait to get back to see you again!! I'm sorry we didn't get a picture of all of the teachers on the crazy night!! And of course the fun, fun neighbors!! But who will ever be able to forget how much fun we had and how hard we laughed!!!! Love you, Bet! You're the best!! Jeanne
Love the update as always! Can't wait to see the pics from my trip...no pressure!! hahaha!! I loved talking to you last week and can't wait until the next time!! Take care of each other! Love you!! Jeanne
Heya I'm from Seattle too! Go Mariners!!
I really enjoyed reading your blog :) I was in Seoul 3 years ago. Really wish I'm there right now and I know tons of people from Seattle that are in Seoul right now! Maybe I should hook you guys up!
Oh, Bet!! I miss you already!! Thanks for the beautiful pictures and description of your time at Jeju!! I got home safe and sound and can't begin to describe to everyone what the trip was like for me, it was so perfect!! Thanks for everything!! OH...can't bring SoJu through Japan: I checked two different stores; and of course Japan didn't know what I was talking about! Oh well, I really tried!! Been up about 28 hours by now!! Love you!!
Bet!! I can't believe I'll be there in less that two weeks!! Thanks for all of the great info on your current status!! I love all the details about life in Korea! And thanks for your email about what to bring, etc. I just can hardly wait to see you and Jake! Take care and keep up the good work!! Love you! Jeanne
Hi Bethany!!!
We've never met but I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy reading your blog. I live in Toronto and I've just finished university. I'm not sure what I want to do now and I've been considering teaching english abroad. I've heard good and bad stories but your blog makes me feel like it would be such a great experience. I know you've had your ups and downs but still...you'll never forget this adventure. Thanks for sharing your stories and I hope everything is going well for you:)

Hey, Bet!! It was so good to hear about your new adventures as always and I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes because I miss you guys so much! I can't believe it's been six months since I've seen you and a year since you lived with me. I cannot wait to get there! I'm so proud of you for making the most of your time. You are seeing it all! I love you!! Jeanne
Nasty Nasty. At least it will be an interesting point in conversations in the future.
I must admit, now that I'm "temporarily" not having any international adventures, I'm a little jealous of yours. At least I can live vicariously through you :)
