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…

Return to the Office
I’ve been back working in the office after a little break. Things are starting to come together, although there’s a bit of work left to do. This project is the gift that keeps on giving.
