Heading Back to Korea, Woohoooo

I have had my prayers answered, I am not going to North Africa of the middle east this year I am going back to South Korea, the land of the respectful hard working intellectual safe haven for engineering. It is such a relief to know that I am going on a long installation job in a nice city by the sea, Ulsan, it is a tad too close to Japan at the moment but to think i will have super high speed internet and be able to go out and get a beer with some interesting food is wonderful.

I must have done something nice for someone,

just to catch up this last 5 months, i went to Costa Rica for my Christmas holidays and saw all the relatives, had some nice food, in fact my mother-in-law was in a frenzy to keep me fed to the point of bursting. The weather was actually a little cold, but we did get a few days at the beach

Then since Christmas I have been taking it easy, completing the garden project behind the house on the community land, We have tomatoes and some herbs, two almond trees and now steps and a tiled pathway.

I just cannot wait to get back to work though, having 5 months off is great if your able to get out and do things but winter in Spain is restricting as it rains here like all other European countries, I did spend 5 days in Portugal during a non typical dry spell, but it has rained alot since then.
