Korea

So both myself and JP have done a terrible job of updating blogs. But after a long hiatus, I'm finally back.

And now I'm in Korea.

After relocating all the way across the country, I found out my unit would be heading to Korea for a rotation. Lots of preparation, long work days, and 14 hour flight, I'm finally here.  Just about 72 hours has passed since setting foot here, and I'm pretty much settled in.  New SIM in my phone for the Korean network, appointment to set up cable internet, and all my bags unpacked and organized.

We're still in the integration phase, as this country is far different from the US.  That means we're on restriction to the base for a yet unknown period of time, as well as unable to consume alcohol until our SCO decides otherwise (generally a 2 week time frame).

Korea has an amazing infrastructure, and technology seems to dwarf what we get in the US.  I now pay $60 a month for unlimited country wide texting and calls, as well as unlimited data. Cable is at least twice as fast as what we have back home.  And for a bargain of a price.

My room wouldn't be complete without Bucky Badger!

 My room is a good size, with a full bed, a walk in closet, desk, tv stand, etc.  I share a common area with my next door neighbor and coworker.  Everything is pretty bare at the moment as we haven't received some of the things we sent earlier this year (hopefully they come soon!), but I'm working on it!

They even provided me a place to hang my hat!

Lots more to come in the future, especially as I get a chance to visit some sights and head up to the big city of Seoul.

Looking forward to sharing my adventures with everyone!
