What am I doing in South Korea?
I'm teaching English to kindergarden & elementary age children (4-12 yrs. old) through a company called YBM ECC! I will be teaching and living in Incheon in a part called New Songdo City. I love to travel, but have never been to this side of the world, so I thought this would be a great way to experience it. My contract with the school is for one year (my first day being August 5, 2011), so I plan to see as much as possible in that time! And my blog is so I can keep everyone back home in the loop about what I'm up to, and so I don't have to send out a million different emails!
Here's the link to learn more about the program I'm going through and the place I will be living (including about 25 pics!): Incheon: Songdo
Some of my Travel Necessities:
1. A Good Book
2. Gum & Beef Jerky
3. An Archie Comic
4. iPod
