I just stumbled across your website, starting from the st.petersburg site first actually. I lived in s.korea for three years, and fluent but can’t make out what they’re saying. This is fascinating, the trip you made out there. I’ve never been, and not sure if I’m brave enough to go, but I’m planning on reading every post..
From Lindsay:
Thanks! I would highly recommend the trip over there…I think it would be even more interesting for you since you lived in S. Korea.
From Vanessa:
I also think your trip to North Korea is totally fascinating. I never even knew it was possible and I am also going to read every post. Are you considering taking a trip to South Korea?
From Lindsay:
Yep, I would definitely love to visit South Korea someday!
