The most delicious morning! Tried the whitefish and the tuna so far. The tuna is a real game changer done up with extra virgin olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Next? A pumpernickel bagel and scallion cream cheese to top off my 5km walk this morning. Yum! (at Schmaltz Appetizing)

My Christmas Day was non-traditional (we went for Indian food for lunch and then over to Cineplex VIP to watch “The Imitation Game”). It would have been nice to have had Turkey, Mom’s stuffing, and scalloped potatoes as my last Christmas in Canada for the foreseeable future, but I guess it’s also proof that the next few years may be “non-traditional”, but can be absolutely amazing. I had such a lovely day with my parents and am really happy!

It's official...kind of.
I'm incredibly excited to start a new adventure and am fortunate to have already made an e-friend who teaches at the school at which I've been hired. We've been talking through Facebook and it looks like the teachers head out for lots of great meals, late nights out singing Karaoke (Norebang), and teach tons of cute kids English tunes and phrases.
In the meantime, I'm packing up my apartment. It's a lot of stress trying to pack everything into 2 suitcases (yes, just 2. I don't want to bring too much). It'll be tough getting rid of the items with sentimental value like my jewelry box from my parents (it's simply too big to bring), and it'll be tough getting rid of larger items like my bed, love-seat, and bureau. I've started to learn Korean and can slowly read Hangul - this will definitely be a hurdle to meeting locals in Seoul. I'm also trying to shed some lbs. before boarding the plane - my understanding is that normal is overweight, overweight is obese, and obese is unacceptable in South Korea, so that whole eating thing I really need to get under wraps.
I'd been considering moving abroad since winter of 2012. Toronto, although it's my birthplace and will always be my home, has been a challenge. I've made some incredible friends and have had the wool pulled over my eyes more times than I can describe. I encourage the great friends I've made to come visit me in South Korea. I kind of feel like I'm running away to join the circus (someplace completely unknown and fantastic!). I'm just packing my bags and am looking for adventure. Aren't you excited to follow me from the comfort of your computer?
