Learning Korean comes in different methods. One of them is through a Korean children’s book. You may have been learning the language through lessons or videos, but this easy method can also do the trick. Korean children’s books may be a great place to start building your language skills outside of the classroom.

I learned how to ride the subway and train while living in Korea, through lots of trial and error. The bus is no different, but it took a lot more trial and error than the other methods.

It is the end of 2021 and I must say that I am sort of glad that it is over, if I am being totally honest. This was the year that followed the death and started with being alone and in quarantine. Suffice to say that it was not a great start to the year.

Photographically speaking it was not much better. Work was non-existent. I did do a gallery for GuruShots in Seoul and that was fun. It was nice to feel that I was doing something somewhat “professional” and related to photography.

A lot of Korean is incorrect, just as there are many English mistakes used commonly in English speaking countries. But that doesn't always make them necessarily wrong. Some "incorrect" Korean is used commonly in restaurants, in order to make the Korean sound extra polite - even more polite than is necessary. There are some specific grammar forms you'll hear more often in restaurants, and I'll show you what these mean and why they're technically incorrect... but I'll also show you how they can also be right.
