My very first blog

Hello world!

My name is Marina Bijelic, I am 23 years old, and this is officially my first attempt making a blog.

I have had many travels in the past and I always regret that I have nothing to look back on. I think a blog would be a great way to save my thoughts and experiences for years to come.

A little bit about me, I was born in Rijeka, Croatia, 100% Croat and 100% proud to be one.

I spent my adolescence in Toronto Canada, and moved to Fairfax Virginia when I was 12.

My high school experience was spent in the most horrible place ever: the suburbs. I must say I learned a lot from the experience, mostly that I will never subject my future children to such a place.

I moved a lot during my childhood, I went to 6 different schools pre college. In college I went to 3 different Universities, and moved about 7 times through the 4 year experience. In conclusion I get bored easily with my surroundings. My impatience with monotone life has made me somewhat of a drifter, I usually cannot stay in one place for long.

My most recent relocation has been my move to Seoul. I decided I was bored with my one year in Washington DC and I wanted to experience something different and exciting. Never being to Asia, I thought this would be a great opportunity.

I am an English teacher at a Hogwan (private elementary school), I teach children from the ages of 4-9 and I must say it is quite a trip. My school consists of 3 foreign teachers and 4 Korean teachers, it is very small, but that makes it more family orientated. I love my kids, I think everyone would agree that Asian children are the cutest children.

This is my first time living alone for a year in a completely foreign environment so I think this would be a great opportunity for me to start this "blog" like so many others do.

Bear with me and my horrible grammar, I am a little rusty and hopefully this blog will help me improve.

ENJOY!
