Korea 365: 363 The Cool Aunt

363: This is Yu Jin my yoga teacher. I've been practicing yoga with her since I came to Korea, she doesn't speak a whole lot of English nor I Korean but we have become pretty close none the less. She and her husband have been incredibly welcoming and after many camping trips, birthday parties, and snowboarding weekends, she is more like an aunt than a yoga teacher. I will miss my Korean family a lot! 정 들었어요! August 9, 2013.

Korea 365: 360 Indus Pride

360: Korean beer sucks. For the most part, they do have at least one good microbrew I know of called Craftworks, but other than that most beer in Korea is quite boring. A friend brought this bottle of Indus Pride all the way from India as a present. It was brewed with citrus and coriander, and it was delicious. I'm excited to try different beers during my travels after Korea. August 6, 2013
