Happy Holidays! Was thinking of you; Christmas in Bulgaria, it's got to be beautiful, so post a pic or two when you get a minute away from your chores!

Fantastic! The puppies are the breed you were telling me about?

It's such a different life you two have chosen; I do hope you're writing about this, and will share your adventures with the rest of the world. I'm fascinated; I bet there are many others out there who would be, too!

Best holiday wishes to you!

K.

But each one is individually tailored to the time and place of someone's birth, so this one would be for 10am September 21st 2009, Pazardzhik, Bulgaria.

I'm guessing you are a Virgo born on the isle of Man?

That would make a really neat horoscope (center of the British isles!). I could do a commission if you like.

g00p In reply to pignut [2009-11-11 13:21:12 +0000 UTC]

oooh thats even cooler! I wasn't born here, I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, but moved here when I was 5 so have been brought up on the Island. It's a beautiful place here though, you're right it would be neat!

How much do you charge for comissions??

It's rather embarrassing to note, but I believe this is the first time I've ever visited your page.

I'm rather fond of your photographic work. Most of your photos seem to be recent uploads...
is photography something you're experimenting with, or is it something you have experience with?

My mistake. It seems the photos were taken by someone else.

...or am I wrong?

thanks for the super fast fave. how is south korea, anyway? it's one place i gave some thought to teaching in.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

pignut In reply to silentpair [2007-10-17 14:40:21 +0000 UTC]

Teaching here is pretty good. If you're a tightwad like me you can save quite a lot of cash. Korea has nice mountains and some interesting cultural stuff (although the Koreans hide this pretty well behind the modern plastic and neon). It's a very conservative country, and the traditional Confucian style of teaching is extremely dull, although this is changing slowly (I've found the elementary schools are much more laid back and allow more interesting lessons). Koreans like to do everything at the last minute in a mad panic, and change stuff last minute too, so if you are the kind of person who likes to plan ahead this may be frustrating.

Bring quality coffee with you if you can't live without it, and homebrew supplies are a good thing to bring over too, if you can, because the beer also sucks and malt, yeast, hops etc. are expensive here (the local rice beer is good, but if you like anything other than fizzy tasteless lager, you will be disappointed).

silentpair In reply to pignut [2007-10-17 22:26:41 +0000 UTC]

doh. i can't live anywhere with crap beer...even if the girls are quite nice to look at. it's weird that it's so conservative; from what little i've heard, they're pretty open about prostitution and other stuff of that ilk. oh well. maybe i'd better visit it first. thanks.

pignut In reply to silentpair [2007-10-18 15:50:24 +0000 UTC]

A friend of mine left his wallet in a taxi on Saturday night. It was handed to the police on Monday and he got it back in the post today. This wasn't fluke. We all knew that this is what would happen. Koreans are very honest.

silentpair In reply to pignut [2007-10-18 23:44:41 +0000 UTC]

wow. that's a huge selling point. i haven't seen that here; even when i accidentally gave a cab driver a 20 thinking it was a 5. thanks for the info.

pignut In reply to silentpair [2007-10-18 04:47:38 +0000 UTC]

Prostitution is technically illegal, widespread (sometimes next to police stations) and just about discrete enough that people can turn a blind eye to it (well Korean people can). Homosexuality doesn't exist as far as most Koreans are concerned. People have big lavish weddings in their early twenties, sometimes after surprisingly short engagements. Sex outside marriage is frowned on, and arranged marriages still happen occasionally, but there are lots of "love hotels". Confucianism makes children very obedient to their parents and everyone "knows their place". It can be stifling for foreigners, but the society functions well and there is very little risk of theft or street crime.
