Eleven months to the day
Yup, eleven months ago on September 5, 2008, I landed in good old South Korea.
It’s been quite the experience but I think I’ll save a major reflection for my one year.
It will, however, be interesting to see if my current plans actually pan out.
Here is the schedule of my upcoming world tour:
August 16th: Visit the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone aka border between North and South Korea) and obtain the most controversial stamp in my passport yet!
October 8th-ish through October 18th-ish : NEW JERSEY for mine and the parents’ birthdays… unless I get travel fever and end up in Austrailia or South Africa…
Christmas Eve through January 3rd-ish: NEW JERSEY for the holidays – can I swing in a visit to AZ?
March 2010: I finish my 6 month extended contract in South Korea and will have put away some decent savings…
What happens at this point is still a mystery though I have several options brewing…
Summer 2010: go visit the family in Europe with a base in Poland OR work in Europe at a summer camp, preferably France
Fall 2010: East coast, west coast, Europe, Austrailia – who knows! If I could stomach it, I’d love to give NJ a try again because I have been sacrificing my personal relationships for too long and missing out on some wonderful people. I am Auntie Aimee these days. It’s time I was introduced.
By this coming winter I hope to have taken my ACE certification for personal training so I can get into the field and work as I go back to school. It’s hard to buckle down so far from home.
I’d better come up with something so I won’t feel compelled to do another round of the ROK (Republic of Korea). Nah… there’s no frickin way. Plus my mommy doesn’t want me to. 😉
