Another attempt at a blog...

I know I started one of these the first time I left for Korea, but somehow I've convinced myself I'll keep it going this time.

*people delude themselves into thinking that it will work for them.....but it might work for us!!*

As some of you may know, we've currently been living in a pretty country town/city called Armidale. That is about to change.

After much deliberation, we've decided to go back to Korea. It wasn't an easy decision to make, as we both love Australia and we're happy with Armidale. However we also both miss Asia immensely and feel that our desire to travel and explore the world is still strong, and we aren't as ready to settle as we initially thought (well, maybe as I initially thought...Duncan's been keen to go back to Asia since the day we left!!).

We leave early May, with me finishing my last day of work on April 24th. It was hard to resign, as all the people I work are just lovely and strong relationships were developing. We will spend some time packing and moving and spending time with Duncan's family before flying out.

We will be working for a company called CDI (Chungdam Institute). Duncan has friends from his former school in Seoul that work for CDI and they have nothing but good things to say about it. Training starts early-mid May, and the start of the semester is May 28.

Other news that has helped me in my eagerness to go back to Korea is the fact that my mom, Peter, and Katja have sold their house and are moving to Germany! They'll be moving out of their house on May 31, with possibly a brief stop in Manitoba to say hi/bye to my grandma and aunts and uncles. Duncan and I are very excited for them, and for us as well, as now we'll be able to go to Europe whenever we want! :)

Anyhow, that's it for now.

I truly hope I have it in me to keep this blog going. My track record isn't much to brag about, though.

Keep in touch and hope to hear from you all soon!

With love,
Chantal and Duncan
