My first SLP trip...
Once a month my boss, Mr. Jeong, likes to take all the teachers out on a Saturday for a day trip. It’s a really nice thing that we do at SLP. It allows us to spend the day together and just relax. Oh, and there’s always lots of beer involved. Some might think this is crossing the line… that your boss provides you with drinks and good times, but in Korean that’s what they do. And when in Rome…
The first trip I went on was to an Island not too far away. We had to take a ferry ride that was about 1.5 hours away. We had planned to go on a “small hike” on a mountain and then sit, relax and drink on the beach. Once we got to the Island, and found a guide to take us on the hike there was the option given to skip the hike. Now don’t be me wrong, climbing up a mountain sounds cool and all; but if given the option to sit on the beach and drink beers instead- I think we all know which way I’d go.
So a few girls and I skipped the hike, took the cooler, and made our way to the beach. It ended up being a beautiful day, we went swimming in the shallow water, basked in the sun, and enjoyed the moment together. We had brought snacks and had our own little picnic. And we also had some well deserved “girl time talk”, it was really great. Later when we met up with everyone we ate Korean BBQ (cooking meat on a personal griller) and then went home. It was really fun, and really nice of Mr. Jeong to pay for all of his staff to just be able to enjoy a day together. Can’t wait for the next trip!
