Here in Seoul, yet to sleep.

So after a 15 hour flight and 2 hour bus ride and lots of waiting I am finally here in Seoul! The flight was great. (Although, I have not slept in over 24 hours at this point) Korean Air had free entertainment on demand with a personal LCD screen. I watched 2 Korean Movies and 2 Hollywood Indie films; they had a large selection of films to choose from. Also the in flight meal was really good, it was a traditional Korean dish served in a portable manner (It included seaweed soup).

I sat next to a Korean who lives in America and he gave me some "dos and don'ts" of Korea, which was nice of him. He's a CPA and has a father in the TV industry here in Korea.

Time to get some rest...

The subway system will be fun to learn. I wont be able to use it though until I actually move into my own apartment after orientation.
