We are excited to let you guys know that as of June 1st, we have officially begun our final semester in Korea. That's right, we've got just three months left!

It has been growing before our eyes, developing like crazy. We've literally watched constructions sites break ground and complete projects during our time here. The building close to our work finished up about two months ago and there are shops moving in. New coffee shop, "Drop Top," in the building next to work Cranes, cranes, and more cranes And after visiting other places in Korea it is clear that the careful planning that has gone into building Sejong has been well worth it. There are so many dedicated green spaces

Sam told me our first stop was to the Suncheon Bay Gardens.

There are dozens and dozens of different sections, from Bonsai gardens to international gardens (Mexico to French to Chinese themed), rock gardens and wetland areas.  Sam told me the plan was to explore the gardens for the afternoon, drop things off at our pension/guest house room, and then go
