Abode Abroad ( As Coined By Taggart)

Alright, since this is kind of a tradition with us, here is a photo spread of our new kicks in Seoul.  We are on the north east side of the city right on the southern border of a suburb/district called Dobong.  The place was in need of a once-over with the Korean Mr. Clean, but we whipped it into shape the first week here and now it's a pretty nice place to come home to every day.  And we're on the 9th floor, which is crazy and fun! So here you go, first off a picture of our foyer! Aren't you excited!!! (So excited, I know you can't even stand it...)
We have a washer, but no dryer, as is typical for most Korean homes.
This is the view from the entryway, you can see into our kitchen and bedroom.
The bedroom was originally in this room, and not only is it really small, but it's the furthest room from the air conditioning, so we made this the sitting/junk room for now (right now we're using it to dry our laundry).  
Here's the kitchen with our cute little two burner gas stove and metal counter tops.  It actually makes for an easy cleanup since I can basically hose everything down when I make my usual cooking mess haha.
On the other side of the kitchen is our little nook for storage and food prep.  The previous owners even left us a little basil plant!  We'll see if I have any luck keeping that thing alive... O_o
Yes, we know everyone has been worried about how big our bed would be, but it is just fine for us!  It is a double, which definitely is smaller than what we've been used to, but we fit in it and everything :)
The desk nook in the far corner, which already came with those small boxes and a couple books on Korea.
Our his and hers closets are awesome, and here's a shot of our sweet sun room/balcony!
Did I mention we have a GREAT view??? We're pretty excited to make some sweet memories here!
