As I have mentioned, I live in the Uljiro CO-OP Residence.  Native English teachers (Americans, Canadians, and such) fill nearly three entire floors in the building.  It's a wonderful luxury to have so many of my fellow native English teachers living so close to me.

On Sunday, September 17, a dozen of us decided to go to Gyeonbokgung Palace to view the Ceremony of Opening and Closing Palace Gate and the Gate Guard Change.
