After over two years teaching in South Korea David and I returned to the UK but after ten months we decided we missed South Korea and here we are once again... teaching, exploring and LOVING living in Changnyeong, Gyeongsang nam-do.

Cherry Blossoms...

Spring is finally here, it's that time of year cherry blossoms are everywhere. Korea is soooooo beautiful! 
David and I went to a couple Cherry Blossom Festivals. The first one was in Jinhae and the second was in Hadong.
I love dressing up in Korean Traditional Clothes!
Look closer, Whale meat...eeekkk!

Bicycle Ride

As I got a new bike for my birthday, I have been going on many bike rides. I am currently not going to Taekwondo because of shin splints so I spend my mornings riding through the local paddy fields. I have to say this exercise is a lot more pleasant than Taekwondo!

My 27th Birthday

I got many many beautiful presents for my birthday. I was very spoilt! I was working on my birthday but I didn't mind as I got more gifts from people in work and Richard and Suzi bought me a birthday cake. Very nice! Plus our school was closed for elections on the 11th April so we all got a day off. An extra birthday present! David and I went into Changwon and went for a nice lunch. After this we went shopping and I treated myself even more. I had a lovely day!

Geoje Island

Last weekend David and I went to Geoje Island. This Island is around 100 KM from Changnyeong. It is a very nice part of Korea. We spent the weekend visiting varies tourist destinations. It was nice even though it was a little deserted as it was out of season.

Haein Temple

As I bought a new camera we thought it would be a great idea to visit Haein Temple to practice using my camera. Haein Temple is very pretty. I am not sure if I captured it though!

Samgyetang

Today David and I ate Samgyetang. Samgyetang is a soup, which primarily consists of a whole chicken and Korean ginseng. The chicken is also stuffed rice. It is delicious!
