Cesta na severovýchod

Because I have already moved in the dormitory, my brother made me to put my current address online, so he could send me some letter (I'm waiting, Jirka!). But be aware, that around December/January, I'm planning to move outside of the dormitory 😅 Anyway, here is my current address. Transcription/romanization: Anna Povolná Room 311, Dasom Hall, KAIST Daejeon, Yuseong-gu, Daehak-ro 291 South Korea 34141 Here in South Korea, they write addresses in a reversed order, so they put first the province, the city, then the street, etc. For example, my name in Korean is 안나 포볼나 and as you can see it is placed just before the postal code. But because you will probably send me the mail from abroad, I think it would be the best to write it like this so poor postmen in the Czech Republic and outside of Korea know where to send it: 대전광역시 유성구 대학로 291 한국과학기술원 다솜관 311호 안나 포볼나 South Korea 34141 KAIST campus. The arrow is pointing at the building of my department. Kampus KAIST. Šipka ukazuje na bud...

Well, you already know that Jorge got married. But what you don't know, is that on our way to Seoul, I made a short stop with Laura in her village where she's going to study her master's degree. You see, I am making fun of her all the time, because of the fact that she's going to live in countryside, but actually she will live like 15 minutes on bike from Daiso (unfortunately, Laura says that it's small 😓) and Homeplus. So that's not really a countryside, because these are the most important things you need for a happy life in Korea. Well, and Costco (Laurita, you need to visit me and Azizbek in Daejeon 😁)! On our way from the train station to first reality agency I noticed that there are almost no young people. And on that day the whole Jochiwon looked super gloomy. With the first lady we went to see small oneroom which was located in the basement. I mean for basement place it was kind of ok, but still, who wants to deal with the mold? On the other hand, it...

Once upon a time, there was a boy Jorge who met beautiful girl Kathe and they fell in love (well, first he didn't notice her at all, but after studying at university in Italy, then coming back to Ecuador, he finally noticed her). So they fell in love and started to date. One day they decided to apply for a scholarship in a far away country called Korea. It may seem as an coincidence that both of them got accepted the same year and for the same degree university, but we all know that this was destiny. Unfortunately, they had to be seperated for theeir first year in Korea, because Jorge went to Daegu (more like Gyeongsan) and Kathe went to the most beautiful city in Korea (according to Dani) Gwangju. They survived not only this separation, but also the horrible coronavirus pandemic which took place in the year 2020.                         In Daegu Jorge met his amazing Latino family and he became our older brother, 오라버니. He...

우리 가족, my latino family So this is how we begun with our Korean studies on the 1st level I can't believe that it's almost a year since I came to Korea. I have to say that it was amazing year, full of adventure and new experiences. I'm very happy living here in Korea, although I don't really know why. 😅   The coronavirus epidemy made our studies quite messy, but after one semester which we spent on YouTube and ZOOM, we couldn't be more happy to go back to school and start again with the offline classes. As a GKS student, I couldn't choose at which university I will be studying Korean, but I am so grateful that I was sent to Daegu University, because we had the funniest and best teachers. The last classa on the 3rd level I spent the whole year studying Korean language and I have to say that looking back - me coming to Korea knowing how to read very slowly and only few stupid phrases from Korean TV shows, I guess I learnt something. Now, I can say kind of everythi...

우리 가족, moje latinskoamerická rodina A takhle jsme začali se studiem korejštiny na 1. levelu Nechce se mi věřit, že už to bude skoro rok, co jsem v Koreji. Musím říct, že to byl moc krásný rok, plný dobrodružství a spousty nových zážitků. Jsem v Koreji nesmírně šťastná, i když vlastně vůbec nevím proč. 😅   Se studiem dost zamávala coronavirová pandemie, ale po jednom semestru, který jsme strávili na YouTube a ZOOMu jsme se nadšeně vrátili do školy k offline výuce. Jako GKS student jsem si nemohla vybrat, na které univerzitě se budu učit korejsky a jsem moc ráda, že jsem byla poslána na Daegu University, protože jsme podle mě měli ty nejvtipnější a nejlepší učitele. Poslední hodina na 3. levelu Celý rok jsem se věnovala studiu korejštiny a musím říct, že na to, že jsem sem přijela s tím, že jsem uměla tak maximálně velmi pomalu číst a znala jsem pár stupidních frází z korejských seriálů, tak jsem se asi i něco naučila. Zvládnu teď říct tak nějak všechno, co potřebuji v běžném životě...
