South Korea | Week 16
Durning the weeks, we spend the days doing all the things – school, soccer, baseball, swim, Awana. I even recorded a haul from a Korean grocery store! But on Saturday, we hopped on a bus from my husband’s work and headed up to spend the weekend in Seoul. We’ve been to Seoul several times, but […]
South Korea | Week 14

We were picked up from the airport and driven to Camp Humphreys – the base we’re assigned to. It’s all slightly hazy – both figuratively and literally – […]
