They are some of the most frequent posters here, other than yourself, and it's worked out well having this place as a way to remain connected. We keep the forums as a general place to meet and share interests too. They are all aweseome people. Culture shock isn't as bad when people you know stay in touch to soften the blow when you return home. There are a lot of trivialities that I have to deal with here, but I talk about a lot of those in Korea too. That's everywhere. All you need to do to get access to the pictures is contact me on Flickr and I'll change the permissions. Well, yes, I have a group of incredible friends.

I found that when I got married, it changed the dynamic of the relationship between me and some of my uni friends. Having children also caused another big shift. You seem to have a well-adjusted group of friends who take a fair bit of interest in your life in Korea and I think you're lucky to have that. You also seem to be well adjusted yourself. I know that when I first went abroad to live, (I spent a year in China with 10 others while at university) we returned to our country and found that we had changed a lot such that we no longer had a solid connection with those that had remained behind. A year dealing with the hardships of China had given us so much experience of life that a lot of the stuff that our college peers were fussing about seemed so petty. Anyhow, enough about me. What will I have to do to get access to the private photos? Since your blog details a lot of detail about your private life, it makes me kinda curious to know what you look like.
