National Museum of History


Well despite living through the coldest winter of my life . . . Chris thought it was a good idea to stop hibernating and to get out. So we took an afternoon to explore the Korean National Museum. It was really great. We got tired though, and found and awesome window nook there where we were able to just relax and talk. It was awesome, and we both really enjoyed it!

Friend's Visit

When I was in high school I went on a trip to New Zealand for a month. The trip was awesome, and I made some really great friends. One of my best friends on the trip is named Jessalyn. It has been 10 years since the trip, but we would periodically catch up online.

In recent years Jessalyn became a flight attendant. So she is able to fly all over the world. Well, the last time she stopped in Seoul we got to hang out and reconnect. It was really great. Here are some pictures of us.

Blind Kids Camp

In January, I was given the opprotunity to volunteer at an English camp for blind Korean children. I loved it, and it really impacted my life and changed how I thought about people. I love those kids so much, and I am so grateful for the days that I got to spend with them.

We put on the play little red riding hood, and these boys were the hunter and the wolf
