1. What was I doing 10 years ago?

10 years ago I was 23 and living in Sokcho on the far north-east coast of Korea - a hop skip and jump (literally!) from the DPRK (North Korea). I’d finished my grad. Dip. In Korean and decided to live in the countryside to escape people who wanted to speak English to me while riding on the bus. It worked! People in the country don’t speak English like they do in the big cities. I was teaching English to University and mature age students, learning how to make Korean chilli paste and kimchi in the traditional manner from the Grandma who lived downstairs.
