For those of you that are wondering, Chris is well! He has regained his healthy(?) appetite. :) I apologize if some of the former posts alarmed any of you...I had just wanted to update people on what was going on.
Tomorrow, around 2pm, my cousins, their friends, Chris, and I are leaving to go to Jeju-do, or Jeju Island. Jeju is a small island off the southeast coast of Korea. It is the top honeymoon destination for South Koreans. Dong-jun, the guy I tutor, told me that the top three things Jeju is known for are: fish, women, and the wind. The women because they were the main breadwinners several decades ago. They would dive into the far depths of the sea to catch various sea creatures. This was a dangerous occupation because they would dive without proper scuba gear. Not too many women pursue this today, understandably.
I'm really grateful because this is actually an all-expense paid trip. My aunt arranged the itinerary which consists of a tour during the daytime, the flights, and the accomodations. Chris and I had been hopeful of going to Jeju-do, if we were able to financially, and now we are. I'll be sure to take a lot of pictures (I'm bringing an extra battery, a charger, and a power converter.) If you'd like to learn more about Jeju, there's always Wiki.
Have a great weekend!
