Went on a walk up the mountain which is essentially my back garden (so flipping cool) with my 2 host brothers. For those that love exercise, half way up the mountain is an outdoor exercise station. I'm talking bench for bench press, inclined situps, cross trainers, push up bars, pull up bars etc. etc. For free. Now that blew my mind. Had a sesh on those, and then told my ho-bros to wait whilst I ran to the top and took some pictures. Banging view. Ran back down, had a mouth like Ghandis sandal and asked my ho-bros where the water was and said hello to some middle aged ladies all in Korean. I must have been so good, as one of them came up to me, handed me a leaflet and yapped at me in Korean. Don't have a clue what she said, but turns out they were Jehovah's Witnesses. Spammed.
I've also always thought that I give out the 'I really like funk music' vibe (you can tell by the way I use my walk), but this was affirmed when on the subway a lady came up to just me and gave me a flyer for a 70's themed disco contest and party. Obviously very flattered. Then the next day, I again got given the same flyer (probably by the same lady) somewhere totally different. Her Disco-dar must have gone into overdrive.
Introduced ho-bros to songpop - can't get enough of it. And they slaughtering the K-Pop section. If you don't know what songpop is then I'm sorry as that probably meant nothing.
Honestly though, having a great time. Couldn't feel more welcomed by my fam, they are so lovely and warm.
Oh, and did anyone catch the BeeGees reference I put into this post? (rhetorical question) (but you can answer if you want) (especially as it means there will be more comments which makes me think people actually read this) (but seriously, it's rhetorical)
Sounds like you're having fun Tim
ReplyDeleteGood to see that you're stayin' alive Timmy, keep the updates coming xx
ReplyDeleteMy Beegees efforts weren't great... Only got "you can tell by the way I use my walk" on the second read through! Keep up the good work. Loving the blog!
