Back to Asia

A Seoul with Soul

Wow it has been FAR too long. To be honest there hasn't been too much happening in Ajax (go figure) which means there hasn't been too much to write. All of you who are reading this will have received the email letting you know about our next grand adventure. We fly out of Pearson International tomorrow morning at 7:45 a.m. and land in LAX 5 hours later. From there we get to hang out at the airport for 4 hours (I'm crossing my fingers to see someone famous) and hop on another plane directly to Incheon International Airport which is 52 km west of Seoul. We will be landing at 6:30 p.m. South Korean time (which is 13 hours ahead of us folks in Ontario - everyone else will have to do the math... sorry!)

Our representative from our placement agency will be picking us up. His name is Sammy and he has been a fantastic help. He has made the process so much easier for us. We may sacrifice some salary, but for the peace of mind that he brought to us it has been worth it a hundred times over.

We start our first day of a two week training period on Monday. Our first official day of work is on the 24th of July. We will be in temporary housing until we finish training, but we get to move into our apartment on the 22nd of July. It will be very nice to have a place of our own again.

Tonight we hope to spend some time relaxing because the last two weeks have been hectic. Once we get situated in Seoul we will write again. Peace out!
