Daily life

Jon and I have truly been enjoying the daily life here in Korea. Other than sightseeing, we have been enjoying some of the peaceful aspects of our stay here.

Chansoon has been teaching me how to cook Korean meals (yay!!!!!) and I am planning on getting the recipes/cooking on video so that I will always remember the way you cook them.

She has taught us many Korean tips on eating healthy, such as:

• Eating cabbage EVERY morning to help digestion, skin, weight management and cholesterol
• Eating tomatoes to prevent cancer and get the needed nutrients and antioxidants. (Also helps with digestion)
• To increase blood flow...have WARM water EVERY night. Also, avoiding cold water as much as possible because of it's ability to lower your internal body temperature, which in turn, can impact your immune system.
• Eat Korean sweet potatoes as much as possible. Again, just for the nutrients that it provides.

So, we have been snacking away at all of those things....:) It's nice because if you do eat healthy and eat as much raw vegetables and fruit...you can AFFORD to have some luxury snacks every once in a while:) (dark chocolate being my FAVORITE!) 

Study time! Chansoon helping me with lesson planning! Fun with phonics!:)
