Yesterday after school, the staff gathered for a farewell / welcome dinner for teachers. The vice-principal is leaving the school to take up another position as a principal at another school. I was given a very warm welcome and was assisted by teachers around me in my quest to eat kimchi with chopsticks!

Wow, kimchi, it's too much for me! Hi there, my name is Jill. I noticed that you like bollywood movies so I thought I'd check out your blog. It looks like you're in Korea, eh? That's neat! I've been to Taiwan, and it's a whole new world! I've never eaten any indian food, can you recommend something?
hi jill :) thanks for stopping by..
i only arrived in korea on saturday. it's been such an experience thus far...
yeah i love bollywood movies..i am the editor of a bollywood magazine here in SA. how long were in taiwan for?
anything particular in indian food that u enjoy?
Hi Sheetal,
Why are you in Korea? Do they need editors for bollywood magazines there?
My husband served a mission for our church (lds church) in Taiwan for 2 years, then after we married and he graduated we went back for 2 weeks. It was like a whole new world!
My friend introduced me to bollywood movies. I really REALLY like Veer Zaara, Lagaan, & Main Hoon Na. There's an indian restaurant here in Ohio and I'm going to check it out--but I have NO clue what to get.
I noticed you said you're a vegetarian--are you hindu? Are you from south africa originally?
im teaching english @ an elementary school...
depends on what ur taste is ... for me, i am a vegetarian so only eat veg curries (when i do eat it).
yes i'm hindu & was born in SA :)
