On the subway…

Oksu Subway Station 옥수

One of my favorite things to do when I am in Korea is to ride the subway, and observe the faces of the people around me.  I know that when I get on, I stand out.  I can be the only white person in the subway car and sometimes on the whole train. With my crazy curly hair, there's no way to hide that I'm not Korean.  People often stare, but sometimes they smile, on occasion they nod acknowledging my presence.  It's always an interesting experience to see people's reactions to me.
