[Murray, South Africa] Once I realized it was Buddha's Birthday and all those parades happened yesterday, I was a bit sad to miss it all! I'm trying to wrangle another job, and add 4 hours to Charmaine's schedule at the youth center to fit the hours at a new adult hagwon...losing Korean Won in my salary, adding it to Charmaine's would free me to take double jobs (Mon-Sat) which would be a small hell for about 10 months, but adding to a nice bike ride next summer for sure. Have to meet with the President tomorrow to see if the idea can flow. Good to hear, I love walking around Seoul too, same reason, for a visit...it's 1.5hours subway into Metro Seoul for me, so with the return trip...I would have to start right away (3-4pm Saturday) to make it worthwhile, I went home and slept till you called...and more afterward. Hi Seoul would be cool, but so would cycling Korea, I'm thinking South Coast, but I may have this new job (or not, find out tomorrow!)...so play it by ear, I'm also having a great time reading Nicholi's blog http://www.worldtravellers

About the Korean-World Author
Brian has completed his second mountain bike journey, MongoliaX expedition - Crossing Mongolia 2012, an unsupported mountain bike MTB expedition across 2500km of Outer Mongolia from Ulanbaatar to Altai Taven-Bogd National Park bordering China, Russia and Mongolia.
In 2013, as a sequel to a trilogy of cycle tours, Brian enjoyed a more leisure bicycle tour onboard his Koga-Miyata World Traveller seeing the northern tier of the United States and western Canada covering 3400 kilometers / 2000 miles in 30 days. This North American cycle tour was called Totherocktour. Enjoying the adventure of bicycle travel and every great conversation started while traveling on the road - has refueled his inspirations to cycle around the Earth. In 2013, while he cycled solo from the Great Lake State of Michigan, United States to Banff National Park in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. He weaved through local communities and reconnected with friends, family and community after spending almost a decade in Asia.
Brian is now supporting several non-profit foundations through expeditions: IDEAS Foundation of Canada IDEAS is the acronym for Intestinal Disease Education and Awareness Society which supports the IBD community, those suffering from IBD-inflammatory bowel disease, also known as Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis.
Thanks for visiting my Journal from Asia
