Pictures from Bangladesh
Here are two galleries of photos from Bangladesh. I’ll do a longer write-up later, but I’ve got lessons to plan right now. Enjoy!
Back from Bangladesh
There’s been a lot happening lately. To summarize quickly:
- Regular classes ended the middle of July. After that, I taught two weeks of half-day “camps”. The first week was for students. The second was for general (non-English) teachers and people from the community. Both weeks were much easier than I’d expected.
- The first week of August, Erin and I taught classes at a teacher-certification course in Gangneung. Our topic was “Listening and Speaking Activities”. We didn’t really know what that mean, and neither did our students. It went alright, but was surprisingly stressful. We were well-paid, however. The extra money from this week completely paid for our trip to Bangladesh
- We went to Bangladesh! This was a hell of a trip. We were only there for nine days, to attend a friend’s wedding. It was quite an experience. I won’t go into details now, but look for a longer update (with pictures) tomorrow.
Our time here is winding down quickly, and we’ve got lots to do. Packages must get shipped home, paperwork must be filled out, the apartment needs to be cleaned, and eventually we’ll have packing to do. We’ve also got one more week of teaching, and some additional grad school work to accomplish before we leave.
We’re both pretty excited for the next step.
Pictures from Thailand
So here are a bunch of photos from Thailand. In order, these are from Bangkok, Koh Lanta, Sukhothai, and Ayutthaya. The pictures look OK for the most part. I think the colors look a bit washed out, but I’m certainly no photographer and it’s just a point-and-shoot camera.
Again, these images are resized and watermarked. If you want a clean file, just let me know.
Enjoy!
Pictures from Korea
Here are a handful of pictures from my vacation in Korea. The weather is way too nice to be on the computer today, so I’ll keep this brief. These are pictures from Seoul and Gyeongju, in that order. I’ve watermarked these pictures with my website name; if you want a clean image or a full-resolution file, just let me know.
(We did not go to the Seoul Museum of Chicken Art, but there’s always next time.)
Vacation!
I’ve been even lazier than usual with this blog, but here’s a quick update:
- School camps ended Friday, January 23. They were reasonably successful
- My parents arrived in Korea the same day. We spent about 10 days traveling. Everything went really smoothly. We saw Seoul, Gyeongju, and Gangneung. Pictures will be up later.
- Erin and I are currently waiting in Incheon International Airport. We’re about to fly to Thailand for 17 days of vacation. If you currently live someplace cold, enjoy this weather forecast.
That’s all for now. (Erin is kicking me off MY computer.)
