safely arrived

i'm in strange and surreal Seoul again. the weather is good: 70s and sunny. this is a nice change from the all-too-early winter currently descending upon the PNW. i left Seattle in long underwear; i arrived in Seoul shedding layers.

i will continue to post on this blog (which is a private blog for my friends) on more personal reflections, experiences, etc. the travel blog (www.seoulmaking.blogspot.com) is a public blog and thus will be somewhat different in tone, details and themes.

with severe lack of sleep and a 16 hour time difference to blame, i'm in serious jet lag mode. a mid-afternoon nap is in order.
