Hello Everyone

It has been months since I came here.

How are all of you doing?

North-South Korea friendship party

Hello Friends!

Today we had a North-South Korea friendship party. It was a lot of fun and we kept politics out of it. The only problem we had was a small language barrier. The dialect from the South has evolved differently and has more Japanese and English words. So for such words, we used Russian.

It was a nice party and we also had friends from America, England, local Russians and Japanese. These foreigners had trouble eating red hot Korean food!

I wish world leaders could just get along like we did.

Missing India
Related to country: India


What is it to be physically in 1 land and mentally in another?

I can still feel the soft evening breeze of the mountains of Palakkad. I can still smell the delicious aroma of Cochin's sea food curries. I can still see the light of an oil lamp being in the evening outside a house in Calicut.

A houseboat ride in Kumarakom. A walk on Kovalam beach at sunset. A prayer in a Guruvayurappa temple in Thiruvanthapuram at the crack of dawn.....

Where is my India? Where am I?

I am in this dull and colourless place with no heart and no soul. Why must I be in this place which was a political prision in Czarist Russia? Why must I be an Aziat, a stupid Korean in this white man's land?

That is life for now. Atleast I still dream of India

Having a Blast in India
Related to country: India


I am having the time of my life in India. I started from graceful New Delhi with its open spaces, masions, monuments and great food. Next stop was Bombay. I stayed there just long enough to leave before the rains.

I went from Bombay to the beach and party paradise of Goa. I am now in the south Indian state of Karnataka in a city called Mangalore.

Karnataka is so far my favourite Indian state. I loved modern yet easy going IT city of Bangalore and then the palaces of Mysore. I was also in a place called mini-Tibet (Bylakuppe). Tibetan people have made a great job there.

Then the highlight of my trip. The visit to the architecture marvel called Hampi. Hampi was the seat of the Vijaynagar Kingdom. I have never see anything like it.

I am enjoying everything in India from the diverse food to the Indian cinema in many langauges to seeing lovely Indian women both modern and ones in traditional clothes to the culture and architccture. Most important is the people of this country. Till now, I have not seen a nice set of peeople.

Tomorrow I will cross into Kerala.

Trip to India

Hi Friends!!!

I am so excited as I just found out that my Indian Visa is cleared much earlier than I expected. I will now buy my ticket and go to India in a few weeks.

The only thing that seperates me from the fascinating land is 5 exams. I now feel more motivation to study for the exams.

Tourism to North Korea

In my first update I offerred to help people with advice on how to visit my country and get visas. Since then many people from Nepal, Arab countries, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Kenya and Nigeria have been asking for my help to help them migrate or get jobs.

My friends from these nations. I am just a student and I would like to help all of you get jobs and migrate but I cannot help you. Please understand that if you want to see my country as a tourist then I can help.

Regards,

Yong Kyeong
