I have found that Koreans are very, very kind and sweet
people. They are willing to do a lot for any random person they meet on the
street. Americans are also very kind, but I’ve noticed that Koreans take a few
extra steps in the process.
Last weekend, I stayed with a family in Ulsan. I cannot
begin to explain how great of an experience that was. The family was so kind
and just so wonderful! They were always keeping us entertained, fed, giving us
anything and everything we needed, and so much more. I was so sad when I had to
leave because I knew I would miss them too much. They gave us such a wonderful
experience and I will cherish the memories we made forever. My home stay family
took me and my friend to Haeyundae Beach, Jinha Beach, VIPS, many huge
department stores and shopping malls, Madame Tussauds, an Onggi Museum, and so
much more! They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable every
second of the day. We started each day early and ended each night very late
because of how much fun we all had together. They took us all over Ulsan and
Busan in just one weekend! They gave us an experience of a lifetime.
My students were excellent. They were kind and hard
workers, and they always tried their best to make sure the BFAs were
comfortable! They made this trip even more enjoyable:)
I cannot believe an entire month has gone by, and it is sad to me that I am already getting ready to leave this country. I have to come back here; I love it so much here. I love my Korean experience.
