After a crazy trip to Japan I have my new visa, got to use it for the first time, and am back in the country where I feel at home. Japan was nice but the stress of the last minute trip and being unable to plan for it made me happy to be heading back on the ferry back to Busan, South Korea.
I picked up the Branners at the airport in Incheon and we had a few hours together on the bus before getting back to my place, hurriedly packing up the remainder of my things, having the manager at Crimson House agree to mail a box of my stuff to the new address, drop off the Branners at the airport bus stop, and catch the next train down to Bell and jumped right into training sessions for the teachers.
The next day was more relaxed, had a light breakfast while string outside at the rain (water in the air brings out colors; so staring at the rice patties and the mountains was a wonderful way to start the day). Lunch was sashimi with tons of side dishes, then went to the movie theater, and finally a public bath; the third I have been to.
I've got all my stuff minus a computer screen and should be getting a desk/chair today.
Getting to know the teachers well and the fact that I am learning their language makes them more relaxed to speak mine; something I have found true in all groups.
And today the students come~
