I'm back in the guk!

Well it's been quite some time. I apologize for my gap. Blogging is like working out - once you stop doing it you find an inertia in your inactivity. I'll try to be better. Since I've been gone I went to Busan, went back to the Seoul region, said goodbye to some dear friends, went back to Chicago for a month and a half, and came back here to Haensin-dong. That's a brief recapping - but honestly there isn't much to tell. I've been fascinated by the buildings here lately and blogger is the best format I know for large images. I introduce you to my study of the skyscraper apartments around where I live:



This is my neighborhood, and the day is gorgeous:



People love TV here, but who does't:



It's got to be a cinch being a Korean postman:



Home to many of my students:



Watch out for burglars! Just kidding, they don't exist here:











Taxi drivers and the taxi queue:



The power plant in Ilsan:



The setting sun in the mist and trees on the roofs:



Happy Lunar New Year's!
