Glad you found me, and thanks for posting. I have a Korean photoblog that might be of interest to you, Project Seoul.

“Scully Doesn’t Know” is a good tune. I’ll be seeing Humming Urban Stereo in concert in a week, and I’m much looking forward to that. ;)

Cheers,
Matt

Aye, the photos are all mine, and thank you. The people here are very friendly, and the culture is interesting. All reasons that I’ve been here so long, and continue to stay on. Korea’s a pretty decent place. :)

Matt,
This picture was taken from Lucia’s balcony, right? I always loved this view myself and often leaned on the rail overlooking Daechi if I was a few minutes early to teach Boosik and Joonsik. How are they coming along? English improving? Boosik is good, but is Joonsik making improvements? Later, Shane

Hit the nail on the head, Shane. Lucia has a spectacular view of the area. I often spend a few moments gazing out over it all before and after my visits.

The kids are doing pretty well. Boosik is really busy in his new high school, so I don’t see him much. Joonsik is also very busy, but doing well. He’s taking a lot of tests these days, trying to get into more elite hakwons.
