Grab Bag

Korea, Seoul, September-October-November 2008

This is a pc bang. This is where I call you on the weekends.


Some colors from Fall, outside of the city.

Dongdaemun. Biggest shopping area in town.




Entertainer in Dongdaemun.

Former co-worker.

Friends. Some are former students.

My coworkers expressing their love for each other and a doner kebab.

Lotte Department Store.

Most of these are Itaewon on Halloween.



More refugees from Pagoda.

The girls at Mr. Beans made my likeness in my latte.

Clam bake, Korea-style. (With Denise, a teacher at my building.)




Interesting graffiti!

Korea: Seoul, Shinchon, Dr. Beans, the best coffee in Seoul?; fuzzy nights out, long exposure times, criminals, teachers, and criminal teachers

That's a view from my dorm-apartment. Here are some experiments with long exposures:




I was excited to see that there was a Velvet Underground Bar in Shinchon. Hugely excited. We learned that it had been closed for at least three years. A disapointment. The Doors bar is pretty cool, though.






That is Andy. As you can see, he is a criminal. But he lent me money is my only ally in the office as of yet.



"Dr. Beans" is a coffee shop in Shinchon. It's probably the best coffee in Seoul. I'm addicted.







Drinking in Gangnam. Just like old times.
