Where I Spent February 2012


Our orientation for the TaLK program has taken place at Korea University, Sejong Campus. The campus is located in the city of Jochiwon. These are the dorms we have been staying in.



This is the fitness center where I've been getting back into shape after two years of sitting in front of computers, eating foot-long subs and forgetting what it means to move one leg in front of the other at a rapid pace.


This is the building where we've been taking classes and lectures to become effective teachers.



Our lectures have covered a large gamut of topics, including learning such useful, tactful phrases as this:


Here's a picture of the soccer pitch we've been playing on. A group of us from America played against a group from England yesterday. Results?

England: 11
USA: 4

Yeah, seems legit.


Some other random pictures to enjoy. It's crazy to think that in five days we will be gone from our little English-speaking bubble within Korea and actually out there on our own. We're all taking full advantage of being together for one more week, with the closing ceremony taking place Thursday in Seoul.


Oh, and let's not forget: NO TUBAS ALLOWED ON CAMPUS!
