Our flight landed in the Incheon Airport outside of Seoul and we immediately knew where to go, approximately how long it would take to get through customs and how to get to the airport limousine bus that would take us to our apartment. We also knew that getting a taxi with all of our belongings from our little subway station near our apartment back to our neighborhood would be near impossible. We also knew a trick for that; just flash a "man-won" or 10,000w bill. What a contrast from last year when everything seemed completely overwhelming and scarily different.
It is wonderful to not be the new person anymore.
We've started this year off strong, enjoyed reconnecting with new friends and getting prepared for the beginning of the academic year. Here are some photo highlights.
I arranged a ladies night out. A group of 15 of us went into Seoul for some drinks then some Indian food. It was a great time of catching up and getting to know new people to KIS.
Loren plays on a Sunday soccer league with some hagwon teachers, (English as a second language teachers) and some Koreans. After the game my friend Sarah and I met up with them to celebrate their 1st win of the season and get some Mexican food.
These pics are from our first all staff happy hour of the year.
There is a large group that lives in our apartment complex. It's called Woomi Apatu. We call ourselves the Woomians. We decided to have a nice little pot lache picnic in the park behind our apartment. It was very hot and humid but worth it.
The Nies's brought their son's nerf guns and so a great game of hide and shoot ensued. 
You can imagine, this little guy was good! 
It's been a great start to the year. Here's to hoping that the fun continues!
