Winter Activities

This place is called Santa Village.
It was a funny adventure...

The kids went sledding. I cheered them on!

When the kids started getting tired, our helpful bus drivers carried their tubes.

Where did Kevin go? He didn't know what he was holding. 
So now he knows in English how to say "icicle."

The whole time we were eating lunch,
 they kept playing American pop songs...
Britney is giggling in the background because the song
 "Birthday Sex" was playing full blast at this moment.

There was an indoor part that was supposed
 to be like Santa's Village/House. 

You could write a letter to Santa. This one was cute.

We went ice sledding!
It's a tad dangerous seeing that you have two sticks with nails on the end.
I want to bring this back to MT, it was so much fun. 

Such a beautiful day!

  1. Hi I have been following your blog since the beginning, and am now leaving for Korea myself in June! I noticed you have been there a little over a year...did you extend your contract by 6 months? Is it easy to extend your contract without committing to a full second year? Anyway, your journey has been inspiring, I hope you enjoy your last few months in Korea :)

  2. Hi thanks for following my blog. I'm glad it's been helpful in your own adventure, too. Well the process of extending is fairly easy. I guess it really depends on your employer. My director prefers to have to have people extend (saves money/less time putting into training a new person). I only extended for 6 months longer than my original contract. To extend I had to fill out some paperwork, provide some information (degree/background check), get a health check, and pay some fees. So you will have to talk to your employer about the extension process. I think more often than not, people decide to change schools for various reasons. For instance, a new city, they don't like the school they were placed, a job that offers better pay/hours, or they want to teach a different age level.
