History in the Making!

You guys, if you haven't heard the news about North and South Korea, I would assume you are living under a rock! Ok, or it's probably just more on our radar... Regardless! It's super exciting. Kim Jong-un (North) and Moon Jae-in (South) have signed a preliminary peace treaty to end the Korean war and when they met at the DMZ (demilitarized zone: neutral zone between the north and south) they took turns walking on each country's soil. Something that hasn't happened since the DMZ was established. There is a possibility the DMZ may not exist as it is now when we arrive! Exciting times! Here I am at the DMZ in 2011. You can tell I'm really comfortable by how I'm standing 😂 but really, it was super creepy there... I also read this morning that there will.no longer be "Pyeongyang time" (Pyeongyang is the capital of North Korea) and they have merged with South Korea. Honestly a lot of really encouraging news which is great timing for us since I know...
