A Few Notes

Firstly, if you're tired of reading my blog, or want more from Canadians that are, or have been, teaching in Korea check these sites out:

seoulpurpose.blogspot.com

yonnybee.blogspot.com

mickileepaul.com/blog/

As for a non-blog website, check this one out if you like Asian food: asiafood.org

Secondly, I'm rather looking forward to my trip to Southeast Asia and have been trying to think of some of the all-time best movies set in the region. So far I've come up with these:

Air America
Good Morning Vietnam
Apocalypse Now
The Year of Living Dangerously
The Killing Fields
Bridge Over the River Kwai

Thats a start, but would like to encourage you to post a comment with any appropriate additions to the list. Remember, they need to be set in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand, Indonesia, or Malaysia to qualify. Thanks.

Finally another installment of my Beijing tales should be up in the very near future.

Good to see your posts on Beijing. Looking for more on your further travels.

Another interesting movie is "Beyond Rangoon."

A movie that I'd like to see is a Thai movie called "The Overture" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Overture

Three Seasons, which is a bit uneven but on balance very interesting.

I think two more movies would be Hamburger Hill and Casualties of War.
