Introductions

I keep mentioning random people all the time so I thought I would make introductions. If I haven't mentioned them, it means that I meant to, I just met them or they will be mentioned.

Leesa: I met her in my second year at UNBC. She dated the guy accross the hallway form me in residence. She was the instigator for teaching in Asia. Seeing her in Seoul was the first time we'd seen each other in 3 years. Leesa is a teacher in Canada too. She likes meeting new people, travelling and visiting the immigration office.

Denise: Teaches at my school and lives down the hall from me. Also a proud owner of a new bike, Denise is from Halifax and is a great teacher. Our shared interests: movies, sum gup sil (Korean BBQ), wine, learning Korean and riding our bikes. We have a secret bell signal too.

Michelle: Leesa's friend from the Education Program at UNBC. She has been in Korea for about one month. I met her then. She lives in Bundong, about 1 hour from my house on the subway. Originally from Quesnel, BC.

Stephanie: I never meet any other Stephanie's and here is one at my school, hence my new name Sam. She's from Pittsburg and is the only American on our staff. Steph is also a teacher at home and is hilarious. She is my new walking buddy.

Mark: Michelle's new friend. I met him when we were visiting Michelle in Bundong. Michelle met him 4 days before that. He's from Toronto, is a fantastic photographer and likes The Daily Show.

Lindsay: The only Brit on staff, Lindsay is from Newcastle. She's been here for 3 years, teaching at Lass, but is leaving Korea on October 31st. She's someone I would have liked to work with for much longer. She's going home for a visit and then is going to India for a month. After another trip home for Christmas, Lindsay will teaching in Columbia for 2 years.

Alicia: Leesa's co-teacher at her school. She's from Ohio and just adopted a little doggy.

I think that's all. If there are new mentions, it's safe to assume that they're a new friend.
