Life of Mari

I'm Marianne; 21 years old, married and expecting a baby this summer! I lived in Korea for a few years to study korean, and that's where I met my husband. I've written a lot about my life living in Korea, but now that I'm back in Norway my blog will mostly be about this new chapter in my life!

the korean touristbus and I.


Did I mention already, that I miss Korea like crazy? I didn’t expect at all to feel this much “homesick” for a place that I don’t even belong to.. You know when you’re in love and you find yourself thinking about that special someone all the time at totally random times of the day? that’s Korea for me.

I went to meet one of my close childhood friends in the city the other day, and all of a sudden I saw a big black tourist bus with some korean writing on the front… all of my insides turned and I got so excited - Korean tourists!!!! finally, I can get the chance to speak korean again, or even just listen to people speaking Korean!! so me and my friend walked to one of the typical tourist-spots in the city where we assumed the bus was heading to, and sure enough; there it was. However when we got there, the bus was empty and the korean tourists were nowhere in sight.. “damnit” I thought.. but as we passed a McDonalds just down the street, there was a group of koreans sitting outside eating lunch. and as I walked by them hearing them chat in korean, I just couldn’t help smiling :) I didn’t want to interrupt their lunch though! (and yes, I do realize that this probably makes me seem like a crazy stalker of some sort haha)

On another note; I bought my flight ticket today, and I’m so excited~! in less than 5 weeks I’ll be back in Korea ^^
