Welcome to the blog -our first ever. At present, we are still eight or nine months away from embarking on our journey to South Korea, but we thought it wouldn't hurt to get started blogging now. For one thing, it might be nice to look back on this blog months from now when we've been on a steady diet of rice noodles and kimchi, and imagine that we once lived a normal life back in America.
I (Aaron) am still working on my Bachelor's and won't be finished until mid December. Currently I'm taking twelve credits of summer courses, and am totally stoked (yeah, right!) about the eighteen I will be taking this fall whilst continuing to work full-time. Meanwhile, Katie has also been working full-time, as well as taking care of practically everything essential to our every day existence.
As far as Korea is concerned, we have actively been looking at recruiters and everything else that pertains to living, working, and getting there. There is a truly mind-blowing amount of information available on the Internet regarding teaching in Korea. As might be imagined, much of it is contradictory, not to mention dubious. Nevertheless, we are faithfully sorting through the veritable ocean of electronic info, trying to make heads or tails out of it all. I have applied with two recruiters thus far, both of whom encouraged candidates to apply even if one's degree is not yet complete and the date of earliest possible departure is some time distant.
