I had originally planned to call this series “The best of LTG”, but damn, there just wasn’t much “best” to be found. And mediocre is too hard to spell.)
One year ago found me living on my own back in the USA. I’d been home for a month without the wife and I was not a happy camper. I wrote about it in a post called “Nada y nada”.
As it turned out Jee Yeun never did come back to me. So I resolved to come “home” to Korea. I took a part time job that paid less than ten bucks an hour (and I was worth every penny of it!) but provided me SOFA status. And from there I was able to maneuver my way back into my old organization at a rate of compensation that should allow me to be debt free when my one year and a day appointment expires next June. As of now I’m hoping to get extended for at least another year after that. And then we shall see.
For now I’ll just roll along one day at a time. Until I run out of days that is.
There seem to be a few of us expats who are on track to debt-free living. Congrats!
I’m ten years behind you though. Still, better late than never.
