We visited 홍법사 Hongbeopsa temple to participate in a traditional Korean dyeing activity! It was really fun! The temple provided all of the materials, including some awesome scarves for dyeing. Everything turned out fantastic! This particular temple holds regular cultural experiences for foreigners in Korea. Check out their website here. Watch the video below to find out more!

Hello again everyone!
A few days ago we went to Nampo-Dong in Busan at night. We went to see all of the Christmas lights and other decorations on Fashion Street. It was fantastic! The atmosphere was lovely. People were walking around and enjoying themselves. We finished the evening with a delicious hot cocoa in a little cafe.
If you’re interested, you can check out the photos from the evening in Nampo-dong as well!
As always, thanks for stopping by!

We have lived in South Korea for more than two years now, and we’re still learning stuff. That’s one of the exciting things about living abroad – you’re constantly challenged and constantly exhilarated. I love it! For example, from our home in Yangsan, it usually takes about an hour and a half to get to the other side of Busan where the beach and all the other cool stuff is. So, we don’t go too often. We recently tried just hopping on the long distance train for the last little section, and it worked! We got to the other side of town in less than half the time it usually takes! Yay experimentation! Check out the video below and leave us a comment!
As always, thanks for stopping by.

The snow is here! Which is interesting, because it actually doesn’t snow very much down here in Yangsan usually. Especially not as heavy as it did this time, and not this early in the Winter, either. The snow flakes were absolutely enormous! It stuck for a while, but the ground just wasn’t cold enough and it all melted away by the evening. Oh well.
Hopefully we’ll get a few more good snow days in this Winter. Thanks for watching!

This is the second time lapse video of clouds that I’ve made. The last one was made in my hometown of Edgewood, New Mexico, in the USA. It came out really great and has been a hit on our youtube page. I wanted to try to make another here in Korea. This time, I used our new Sony RX100.
The clouds here aren’t nearly as impressive as they are back in semi-arid New Mexico, but we do get some cool formations coming down off the mountain. Check out the video below and leave a comment! Let us know what you think!
I really enjoy making time lapse videos, and I’ll try to make a few more. The RX100 unfortunately does not have native time lapse capability, nor does it have a remote port like our old E-PL2. So, we’re left with manual shutter presses or sped up video. I hope a firmware release – official or otherwise – adds some built in intervalometer functionality to the RX100!
If you’re interested in seeing some other time lapse videos I’ve made, you can check out a playlist of them here. I’m not the greatest, but I’ve improved a bit since my first attempts!
Thanks for stopping by!
