At first I wanted a cultural experience before going to law school.
Now, my main reason is to learn the language. If I could learn it better someplace else, I would be there. |

I like that nobody really knows who I am here. Anonymity, after all. great.
I can walk down the street without being recognised. |

I first came here almost twenty-two years ago, to teach for a year. I got married, moved back to the States with my wife, and then taught college there for a few years. In '89, I moved back to Korea with my wife and son, and stayed. At that time, my wife said it was only for a year--that's been a really looonnng year!

| In a word: fun. It's a kick to live here. Lately I could do with a modification in the temperature though. |
