Galbi is Korean BBQ and it is my favorite of all Korean food dishes. Its flavored to perfection and simply melts in your mouth.

Fun Birthday Fridays

Fun Fridays consist of traditional Korean Birthday dresses, Class pictures with the birthday girls, and Spongebob Squarepants pinatas created by "Kyle teacher". They were saying "Hello Spongeybob".

Spicy Food Anyone?

This week I am going out to dinner with a Korean girl I met last weekend. She just asked me if I like spicy food. . . I told her I can handle it. This should be interesting.

I asked my students to draw their favorite foods. The top two choices were pizza/kimchi and Hamburger/kimchi, but kimchi none the less.

Wonderland Junior English Institute

My WorkStation

Kyle Teacher is my name and English is my game.

Seoul Subway System

The subway system is my new stomping grounds. Every trip costs around a dollar, no matter how far you travel. I saw my friend last weekend in a town 50 miles away, $1 trip. It is a great way to get around.

Techno-Mart

The only way I can explain this place is a 7 story Best Buy Electronics where you can bargain your price. Digital cameras, Ipods, computers. Anything electronic they have it and you can name your price within reason.

CBHK.org- Canadian Ball Hockey in Korea

On the weekends I play in a Canadian ball hockey league. The games are in the city about an hour away from where I live so I stay in Seoul city with friends on the weekends. Never played ball hockey before but these Canadians take it seriously. I get my game face on every Sunday.

Alex and Ben on one of our late night conquests to steal the night from the moon. I think this was in Itaewon, but I cant be sure about that.

This is Andrew. He is 5 years old and is the smartest kid in our class. He likes making intricate block towers and likes milk and Kimchi.

Saw this in a book store and it caught my eye.
America and their apple pie, backyard barbecues,
and bachelor parties.

Seoul Olympic Sports Complex

Futbol Stadium at the Olympic Sports Complex in Seoul.
Home of the Games of the XXIV Olympiad.
I was only 14 months old.

Roaming around my hotel the first day i felt a little out of place because i had not spoke or seen much of the English language in 24 hours. But sure enough I saw this in the subway and immediately felt at home.

Done and Done.
LAX ---> ICN

It was a long flight.

Korean Air has this awesome
