Typical Suwon Friday Night

Camping Like & Club CU
2015.09.04 @ 수원 파정동 [Suwon Pajang-dong]

Usually, when work finishes on Fridays, all of us head home from work to change clothes. Then, we all go out for dinner somewhere not too far from home. This time, it was one of our favorite spots, Camping Like. Then, if the weather is nice enough, we go to the CU, a local convenience store, and have cheap drinks outside on the street. I know, we're super classy.

Second Education Adventure Meetup

Education Adventure Meetup #2
2015.08.29 @ 강남 [Gangnam]

I helped out Sally Kwon with arranging another meetup for teachers that she placed in and around Seoul. This time, we headed out to Gangnam for some dinner and drinks. Then, we went out to 반포대교 [Banpo (Rainbow) Bridge] to watch the light show and have a few more drinks.

( Outside Gangnam Station - Exit 9, there is a new chalk board for drawing. )

( We all took turns making additions while we waited for some latecomers. )

Wyatt's Last Night in Suwon

Wyatt's Last Night in Suwon
2014.08.28 @ 수원 [Suwon]

After the term was all finished up, we went out with Wyatt for his last night in Suwon. We all assumed that it would be a real goodbye, but low and behold, he was returned. It's good having him back around.
