Greetings!

Hello!

Welcome to my blog. Exciting, I know. Well just a little bit about myself before I get into the many trials and (mis)adventures of my adult life. I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada and graduated from Lakehead University with an English Degree and a Bachelor's in Education. Since teaching jobs are a rarity in the popular parts of Canada and I'm ball-and-chainless I decided to travel to South Korea for a one year stint as a NET (Native English Teacher). I arrived in late August of 2012. To all those who do read this blog I hope you enjoy it.

The names (including my own) in these stories will be made up to protect their well-being and potentially their dignity. So let's catch you up with the basics. I live in Busan, it is a city along the coast of the East Sea with beautiful beaches and plenty of mountains scattered throughout. The city has a very youthful and Western setup (apart from the toilets) and a killer nightlife. I am currently living in a beautiful apartment that the school has provided for me. Everything is white or off-white so it's next to impossible to keep this place looking clean. I love my school, everyone is always happy and there is a lot of spirit which is very contagious, and they have one actual toilet right beside my classroom. I have surrounded myself with a collection of Canadians who I met on the plane to Korea and over the past  month we have developed a stellar dynamic. It seems as though the perfect situation has fallen into my lap; however, what would life be without mistakes?

I believe it was Robin Williams who said, "A man has a brain and a penis and only enough blood to work one of them." This is NOT a blog entirely based around sex (just 40% of it). I admit I have faults, but in this era where we celebrate the dim-witted and do-nothingers, I figured I could share some of my stories, because, after all, everyone enjoys hearing about bad things happening to other people.

Happy Reading,

Shraham
