Actually… I Do Speak English

The other morning the guy in the shop tried to tell me he didn’t understand my mime about money and the whole shortchanging me thing by explaining that he doesn’t speak English. He told me that in English. I thought nothing of that, as I can say I don’t speak at least three languages in three different languages.

Turns out he was fibbing. This morning he asked me where I was going and we had the tiniest of chats. And then he offered me two straws for my iced tea.. !

About

I have lived and worked in Suwon, South Korea for three years. I, like many others, teach English as a second language. This is my final year here. Come Spring 2014, I shall be going travelling for a few months. I wonder what my blog will be called then? Photos, observations on life in Korea, teaching, silly conversations with friends, links to articles I find interesting (especially from the Guardian), and music are things I share here. This list is not exhaustive by a long shot. Feel free to ask me anything.

Me, Elsewhere

    That moment when you realise all this banking stress could have been avoided if only you had been typing in the right password online all along. -.-
