Where this winding road leads, I will never know. After a truly blessed year the last, I’d thought to remain sedentary in the interim. A 6 week respite in New York and the eastern seaboard only rekindled the wanderlust and temptation to reacquaint with the road. So when a friend beckoned my company to the Far East, it was a temptation not easily dismissed. And although certain plan has been made to move northwest, that day must bide another five weeks.

As of two days ago, I landed in Incheon without announcing to anyone. After a days tired wandering a modern metropolis that is at once old and new, visiting palaces grounds and a traditional costumed show, I settle today to rest whilst awaiting said friend’s arriving.

Without a missed step, I awoke early and randomly wandered the city with two Finns. One of whom had been studying here and provided good ground reconnaissance for the next few days. After meandering through tranquil palace grounds, we ended up at a traditional theater show — all the more unexpected finale to an unexpected adventure.
