We have a new homely home

Hi Everyone,

Hello to all of you busy people! Some of you are now on holiday and others are still working madly. As for me – well I am working hard and my lessons by and large are generally improving. The students seem to have adjusted to having me in the class room, and finally seem to understand my accent. What’s more they seem to be responding to my lessons better and Iam left feeling positive and upbeat at the end of lessons on a more regular basis.

The big news in my life is that Jess and I moved apartments on Friday .The whole process was not very easy. First we wrote a letter of request, then we had it translated, I then delayed the matter by trying to find the right time to hand over the letter and finally we had to choose a new apartment, pack and move. None of this was easy, very little in Korea is ever easy but we are happy.

The apartment is well laid out and feels spacious, it has a decent view and an awesome bathroom. On top this it comes with some furniture and we are the first tenants. It is close to the old one which means we will continue to shop at Homeever, which is above the bus stop, and socialise with James and Barbara.

I’m so happy that we will no longer have to cook, socialise and eat in the same space. One last bonus – our apartment was furnished with a small fridge which we did not want as we already had one, but we were not remove allowed to remove it: so Julian now has his own beer fridge. :) Going to give it a test run this coming Friday when we have our formal house warming with our friendly friends.

Loving the other English speakers in town, we are forming a nice little social circle.

I’m working hard on improving my blog. For the moment the changes will seem minor, but as I familiarise myself with HTML script / programming my blog should become more exciting.
