I arrived in Busan late at night on Thursday, June 24, 2010. I started work the next morning, and I can happily say that I finished my job a year later. I will be on my way back home on Wednesday, June 29, 2011.

What a great year… I had a large handful of fun nearby Korean adventures, I finally got my fridge all sorted out, I went to Hong Kong, I went to Taiwan, I went to Jeju Island, I loved my kids, I ate a lot of good food, I bought a lot of everything, I got bit up by hella mosquitoes, I got sick a lot, I rode the subway everywhere, I celebrated a lot of old and new holidays, and thankfully, I chronicled it by taking a ton of —if I do say so myself— great photos.

Two more nights and two more mornings in Busan. Then… Japan, LAX, and finally, home.
