Hi! I am Mary and have been living and teaching in South Korea on and off for the past 4 years teaching English aaannddd I am finally leaVing. My boyfriend, Chris, and I are leaving Korea and headed back to the United States to catch up with friends and family, but before that we are going on an adventure around Asia!

We are planning to visit 8 countries in 35 days and we are trying to squeeze in as many performances as possible. I am hula hoop instructor and performer and he does stand up comedy. He is also well versed in film and we are trying to make a video diary each day of our adventure and would love to include you, if you'd like.
