Third Rock From The Sun: November 2008
http://myskadventure.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2008. We have a new homely home. Hello to all of you busy. The apartment is well laid out and feels spacious, it has a decent view and an awesome bathroom. On top this it comes with some furniture and we are the first tenants. It is close to the old one which means we will continue to shop at Homeever, which is above the bus stop, and socialise with James and Barbara. Loving the other English speakers in town, we are forming a nice little social circle. Saturday, November 15, 2008.

A safe (operating) space for early career researchers. March 3, 2016. Joern Fischer on hierarchy and associated challenges for Early Career Researchers in German Academia.

Third Rock From The Sun: October 2009
http://myskadventure.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 24, 2009. Hey everyone, here’s my weekly round up. So I was sick on Monday, as in genuine sick at home sick. Not that I know any other type of sick; but I was worried that the teachers at school may have thought that I was not sick, but rather skiving off. So I deliberated taking the day off but in the end my not wanting to pass on the germs and genuine sick feeling won out. The best thing about all of this is that I finally feel that I am engaging the more hyper students, I feel like I...

Sunday, May 10, 2009. Saving, Saving, Saving. You know I came to Korea with the intention of saving, saving and saving. It was my only thought, and yet seven months in my account does not reflect the millions and millions of Won that I had hoped it would. This has been bothering me of late. But my life is not all glumness. I have in the last seven months had some amazing experiences. So here’s a list of totally incredible things that I have done. (It is in no particular order). I bought a scooter. I have...

http://myskadventure.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 12, 2009. Life continues at break neck pace over here. Jess and I are busy every weekend and have our weekends planned well into January next year. I’ve neglected uploading news of my life to my blog, and I see that I failed to mention that I went to Japan a couple of weeks ago. We took the ferry from Busan to Fukuouka on Saturday the 21. By the by, Japan was the 10. Country that I have visited! We are still looking into the trans-Manchurian as an option for October 2010, and my good f...
