Happy Lunar New Year 2021
This year has certainly looked differently than past years. Instead of trying to out do the last celebration, the last party, most of us have taken this opportunity to slow down. Hopefully some of us are using this time to spend time with our families, either in person or through the tools of the modern era. The change is harder for some to adjust to. For others, it’s an old hat we wear. our family falls into the latter category. We were looking forward to moving physically back to the United States, to regain a sense of normalcy.

European Seoul Searching
One of the things I did when I first came to Germany was look for a good Asian restaurant and grocery store. I will take almost anything resembling Asian if it is good, and in some cases when I’m truly desperate, but what my heart wants most is the comfort of authentic Korean food! If you think I’m crazy for expecting Korean food in Germany, then you really don’t the range of diversity that is in Europe! Which is why you will find that it is not hard to find an Asian or Korean dish offered in most places. However after two years I was beginning to think I would never find a place…
