Farewell, Korea
Farewell, Korea

Over the past few decades, Korea has undergone a notable transformation from a culturally homogeneous society to a more diverse and multicultural one.

Preparing for old age
My wife and I are studying for a Nursing Care Certificate. This involves four weeks of class lectures and two weeks of field placement.
