In Search of Seoul, Part 3 – The Outside
Although we spent most of our time around Seoul and Seongnam, we did venture out and explore more of the countryside and mountains. Who knew there was anything to do outside of Seoul? The capital is where everyone wants to be, evidenced by the absurdly high population density and endless rows of imposing apartment blocks.…

In Search of Seoul, Part 2 – Westernisation
The clock struck 4am, and I was out of bed. There was no way I was getting back to sleep; my body was still in another timezone. I got up, tidied the kitchen, baked a loaf of bread, and had breakfast. This was going to be a strange week. Yes, jet lag is a bitch.…

In Search of Seoul, Part 1 – BBQ
Strictly speaking it’s Part 2, but I didn’t actually write much about Seoul proper in the travel post. We have crammed a lot into the last couple of weeks, and there has barely been a spare minute to write. We have eaten lots of food, explored lots of places, and met some interesting people along…

Korea, I Hardly Seen Ya
This is the first of my posts from Seongnam, just outside of Seoul in South Korea. I will be the first to admit I didn’t exactly have a stellar experience when I visited Seoul in 2015 following my medical elective in Japan. It wasn’t as simple as not liking the city, and on reflection I…

The Ordinary Decent Office, and Other Nonsense
I was back in Northern Ireland for a short trip hence the lack of writing last time, but this one is coming to you from inside the new Ordinary Decent HQ. I thought I should take some photos with my camera as I find my phone rarely does a scene justice unless lighting conditions are…

So Very Close (Ordinary Decent Office)
The title says it all, really. Yes, the office project is finally drawing to a close. I have learned a lot along the way. There are things I’ve done well. And things that have gone not so well, but those too are opportunities for growth. Most of all I am proud that I followed through…

Almost There (Ordinary Decent Office)
I haven’t been feeling well and have run out of time this evening so this will be a quick update with a more in depth post later. My thumb survived at least. Almost There The office project is nearing completion. It has been over a year since I demolished those terrible bookcases in anger, and…

Between a Saw and a Hard Place (Ordinary Decent Office)
Not somewhere you’d like to be, as I found out to my detriment, and testament to taking your time and doing a job right the first time. You won’t be overly surprised to hear there’s more DIY in this post. The work on the office continues in earnest. I left off the last episode with…
