Anyang!

hello all!  we're alive & kicking here in mokpo, south korea, where the temperature hovers between a cool 70 and a balmy 80 degrees (take that, texas!).  first blog posts are kinda lame, so i'll let you guys off easy with a photo montage. <3

i'll never forget that first sip of korean beer...oh (s)hite!
all of our bags...wheeled suitcases probably would have been the smarter choice. 

5 year old class, i.e. adorable hellions (koreans are considered 1 year old at birth, so these guys are actually only 4).  they call us "jessica teacher"/"aaron teacher," which is beyond cute.

traditional korean food is served everyday for lunch...not your average cafeteria fare.

"english village" classroom

grocery store stocked with fake produce 

fire station/hospital 

office, with "amy teacher"  

our school, framed by green hills & cloudy skies 

view from our school
garden in front of the school...lots of peppers & these mystery plants, all grown by a the director's grandmother, who appears to be at least 80.

on the bus

our current apartment building, aptly named "shine ville"

the bathroom doubles as a shower!  it's actually kind of awesome.

our tiny studio apartment!  complete with hot pink bed set...aaron's secret fantasy!

more pictures can be seen on our flickr account (link on the right side of the blog)!  and don't forget to feed the fish!
