I'm a guy who was recently bit by the travel bug. I was only sick from the bite for about 24 hours, then I travelled abroad for the first time. I spent 3 and a half months in India. Before that I had only seen Canada and the US. Of those trips I visited Montreal (5 weeks), Niagara Falls (twice), and 2 sports road trips to the States. Next stop.... Korea! Working as a teacher and travelling all over Asia.... full info

Tom and our Retreat manager

Tom shows the love to the adorable man who ran the place we stayed at. He was always dressed up nice, and even waved us off when we left.

Nice!
I think I admire your life occupation and election of free time activities. After being here in Chile, I´ve decided on a life that highly resembles yours... teaching and traveling. Im excited to see your blog because you´re a good example of what I want to do. Looks like you´re making the best of it!!

From one teacher to another
Hey I just stumbled upon your blog.. I'm sort of like the reverse version of you, where I taught in Korea and am now traveling. I will be back to Korea in the fall to teach again so maybe I'll see you then! Good luck in your teaching, and I must say, what a bummer that you're not in Seoul! I've never been to Daegu but I think it's pretty tame and country compared to Seoul. Have fun and watch out for the soju.. it creeps up on you!
