Still Here

Here being Korea.

But after about a week back in country, I'm packed up to head out again.

Back in February.

'Merikaaaa

In Korea, I eat about 1,250kcal a day, and I usually burn about 300 at the gym from running. I also walk everywhere since I don't have a car. The red line represents that.

In America, I have a limited time to eat all the foods I've been dreaming about while being abroad. The green bars represent how much I eat in America. How much delicious, wonderful food I eat in America.

In completely unrelated news, I have no idea why I've gained 7+ pounds (~3.5kg) in 11 days.

Hiatus

Since arriving safely and with all my luggage accounted for, I've been thoroughly enjoying my time in America. I haven't, however, bothered writing about it and between blissfully doing nothing and stuffing my face, I probably will not write until I'm back in Korea mid-August.


Until then, take care!
