Saying Goodbye

We can’t believe our time in Korea has come to an end. This year has been the best time of our lives. When we were packing to leave for Korea we told each other to look at everything we have to come back for, so if this year is horrible we know we have so much to be thankful for waiting for us at home. We now laugh at ourselves for even thinking that, but I think it was a good way to approach an unknown adventure. We have gained so much from this experience. Living in another country and learning about their culture was the most rewarding. We also have benefited from the teaching experience and the many challenges Jayson and I faced as English teachers. We made so many new friends who became our little family in Korea. We were all there for the same purpose experiencing the same challenges which allowed us to bond. Then, of course, the traveling. When we return home we will have traveled to China, Thailand, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Australia. Yes, we are broke!

We see this year as our second honeymoon (that lasted a year). Yes, we worked hard, but as the saying goes we played hard too through traveling. So, the rest of this blog will be our travels home. So many mixed emotions. Sad to leave our friends, excited to travel, but anxious to be home again. Cape Diem!
