I thought I had pretty well mapped out what I wanted to do after Korea, but then two friends inadvertently planted new ideas in my mind. Then I did some research into the two new possibilities, and wound up adding another possible idea to the pile! Now I've got four possible routes to look into, all of which lead to different places. I'd prefer not to say just yet what I'm considering for my future (I don't want people influencing me), but all four ideas are very exciting, and all four mean staying overseas for at least a few more years. So at least I have made up my mind about one thing: I'm not moving back to the US anytime in the next few years.
I was convinced that Mother's Day or my upcoming birthday would make me homesick, but fortunately neither have. So, I've been here almost three months without even one day of being homesick. Impressive! Especially considering how desperately homesick I was when I first moved to Florida and Virginia - both of which are still within driving distance of Michigan. I don't know whether it's my love of Korea, my enjoyment of my job, or how busy I tend to be that keeps homesickness away. Certainly I am grateful not to be bogged down with longing for someplace I can't be.
