I arrived back in Korea to start my second year here on February 27th. We had our first day of the new school year on March 2nd, and it's now been about 7 weeks back at school. And those seven weeks have, unfortunately, seen some of loneliest most anxious moments while living in Korea. I…
Gyeongju Cherry Blossom: Video Here's a little video from my recent trip to Gyeongju to see the cherry blossoms! Hope you enjoy it!
