1 Month Down, 11 to go

Today marks one month in Changwon, and one month and a week total in Korea. Here's what we've accomplished:
Grocery shopping- between E-Mart and "The Ramp Store" we're good to go.
Korean Cuisine- we've tried some of the more popular dishes and get this-we can order them on our own! Go us!
Furnished living quarters- yes, our apartment is small, but not empty. We have a couch (albeit orange and about as comfortable and similar in size to Barbie's couch, but it's ours). Our place smells like "home" too.
A place to worship- Hanbit!
Friends to worship with- Henry and Nancy have been a huge blessing to us. We truly enjoy their company and hospitality. Not to forget anyone- Arianna, Tad, Christa, Michelle, Kevin, Hannah, Ann, Kelly, John, have all been instrumental in making us feel welcome at Hanbit and in Korea!
Fellow expats to hang out with and crave cheeseburgers with- Kyle and Robyn CANADA, Nancy, Tad, Kelly USA, Arianna NETHERLANDS, Marius SOUTH AFRICA, all help with our sanity. We can freely rant and rave to one another.
A small seedling of a plan once we arrive home- Road Trip!! After we return we hope to buy a new car and take off again... just for a week :) Our destination? Southwestern USA. I have a mean craving for authentic Indian fry bread, and a hankering for the Grand Canyon. As for our other plans? Too soon to reveal anything final, but we are still thinking about furthering our education. And how about a baby? Maybe :)
Love to you all, I'm really missing you today. Thank you for praying for us. We could not be here if it weren't for the love and support from our families.
