Ally arrived tonight, for a 10 day stay to experience Korea and go on our Summer vacation to Jeju Island. Since all three of us (Spencer, Kyle and I) are living here for a year (or more) each, we figured she should come see what our lives are like on this side of the world. I picked her up from Incheon Airport, and Kyle and Allie met us back at my apartment to hang out for a couple hours before bed. We skyped Maggie and Spencer and it was so nice having everyone (some over skype) together. There is always so much love whenver we are all together. (Good job Mom and Dad, you raised us up right!) Tonight, Ally reminded me that it was 4 years ago, almost exactly to the day, that we all took our first big adventure together. The 5 of us wandered around Scotland, making life long memories together. This is the trip that really sparked the wanderlust in me. I can't wait to spend this week with my family, show Ally what Korea is all about, and explore new, fun, exciting places together. I am so lucky to have best friends as siblings. It really doesn't feel too long ago that we were all sitting in a bar in Scotland, climbing mountains and taking jumping pictures, crawling through Maggie and Spencer's fort in our 2 story flat, playing tick, and watching big red hot air balloons float away. Maybe 4 years from now, I'll be thinking back on this trip, as we conquer our 4th continent together. Africa, anyone? ;)

from being awake for over 24 hours).

Tomorrow, I am taking Ally to meet my Olive Class.
They are almost as excited as I am that she is here.
Welcome to Korea, Ally!
I am SO down for Africa!!! <3
