This was my last full day in Seoul before heading off to Daejeon for EPIK orientation. I woke up to a text from one of my Korean friends that her mom had offered to take me to the airport the next morning and that I could stay with them for the night as well. My biggest…

Korea Day 4: Locked Out
Day four was a weird day. It involved me going for a walk just to get my self out of the house and looking for a cafe to study in for a while. I was successful at both of those things, and I very much enjoyed my coffee, bagel, and people watching outside the window.…
Korea Days 2 & 3: Gangnam Adventure
Day 2: On day two I didn't leave my friend's apartment. I wrote a little bit about that in my last post, which you can read here. I was jet lagged and unsure of the neighborhood I was in and that combination resulted in me hanging out with my friends cat Fufu all day. Also it was…

The Virtue of Doing Things
I'm counting yesterday as a loss. I arrived in Korea 3 days ago. The first day was spent easily in the company of a good friend whose place I'll be at saying at for a while. She showed me around Samcheongdong, and we went to a cafe where she likes to study. It was easy…

The Calm Before the Storm
I'm writing this in the coffee shop where I always study. I woke up this morning in my own bed, I ate breakfast while my dog sat on the floor next to me hoping that I'd drop something, and I'm going meet up with some friends during their lunch break. It's almost like nothing is happening. But…

But for those of you who aren't caught up, or are confused about what I'm doing with my life currently (don't worry most people I know fall into that category), let's begin at the beginning.

The Korea Video
I have put many hours into trying to understand the mechanics and art of photography. But I know next to knowing about film. Despite that fact I had a blast putting together this little video of my two weeks in Korea. It was really special for me to be able to see a country that I've loved…
Korea: What I Ate
Before I came to Korea I had a very short list of things I absolutely had to do, and a very long list of things that I absolutely had to eat. Korea is known for its fabulous culinary scene and I can say now from personal experience, that it absolutely does not disappoint. But more than…
