Une Canadienne Errante

That's me! Just another wandering Canadian, moving around the globe, always looking for my next adventure and my next destination! I started this blog because, before I made the decision to move to Mongolia, I wanted to see what my new city would look like, but all I could find when I searched for images of Mongolia were landscape images. I had no clue what Ulaanbaatar looked like right up until the day I landed. This blog was born so maybe other people might have a better sense of what Ulaanbaatar looks like, if they want or need to know. I've been an expatriate in Ulaanbaatar since September, but before that, I lived in Korea, Kuwait, and France. I'm considering moving to Myanmar in June-- I'll keep you posted. I'm kind of a homebody and a loner, but I also like to walk around a lot, which provides plenty of opportunities for pictures and observations. Being a loner, I rarely share my observations with others, but I'll share some here. I never proofread and rarely edit, so sorry in advance for all the typoes that are likely to sneak their way into this blog.

Korean in Cyrillic

When I was teaching business students in Korea, I found from listening to them that Koreans really like Mongolia.  This was confirmed when I decided to move to Mongolia and told a few of my Korean friends about my plans.  When I arrived in Mongolia, I found that Mongolians seem to love Korea as much as Koreans love Mongolia.  This was confirmed to me when my high school students spent twenty minutes listing all the K-pop they love and when I noticed the superabundance of Korean restaurants in downtown Ulaanbaatar.
