Departure Time

Well, it's about time for me to begin my journey to Busan, South Korea. I'll be teaching math at Busan Foreign School for 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th grade. My first flight leaves from Minneapolis to Detroit at 6:30 am tomorrow, so hopefully I'm able to get a few hours of sleep tonight. I spent most of my day yesterday packing with my parents. We did our best to fit everything into a large duffle bag and a large suitcase, along with my carry-on and backpack. Unfortunately I have too many things for that! So I'll be checking three pieces of luggage, each weighing in around 48 lbs.

My first flight is just under two hours, but my second flight from Detroit to Seoul will be around 14 hours. My last flight will be from Seoul to Busan, which is where I'll be living, and it's only a one hour flight. My entertainment for my 24 hours of travel includes: a gameboy, my computer, and a portable super nintendo (including four games). A secretary at the school where I'll be teaching told me that there will be a welcoming party at the airport. Hopefully it won't be too hard for me to find them!

I'll do my best to post regularly, but who knows what kind of trouble I'll be getting in to keep me busy! =)

Here's to hoping my next post will have more interesting information about life in Busan!
