Pre Seoul Nerves!!!



Does it seem moderatly un-nerving that i(Leanne) am currently counting down the days until i leave sunny old England for the bright lights of seoul? If you know me then yes!

Anyway after 3 weeks of manic emails, telephone calls and a huge decision on my behalf i have sent off my signed contracts to South Korea and have been accepted as a Conversational English Teacher at a Private Language Academy in Seoul (The Capital of South Korea)

My departure date is between 19th - 23rd February when i will board a plane with as many of my worldly possesions (yes shoes,clothes and make-up) as i physically can without going over my weight restriction! Sounds like a bit of a no brainer on my part as my weight restriction is usually exceeded on weekends away in Liverpool!!! I think a bit of a capsule wardrobe is maybe needed.

So currently i am awaiting confirmation of my Visa number and a flight!! just the two most important things for my trip and due to the fact that i have to wait for them (Korea) to get back to me (not the most patient girl) i am finding it hard to realise that i am going. It really just hasn't hit me yet!! But i know when it does i will probably have a heart attack!

Just going to sign off now and say a short prayer for my Visa and Flight information to be with me soon!!! fingers crossed.
