Adoption. What does it mean to me? How did being adopted affect my life and how did I start my journey for the discovery of my Korean roots? In this section I will try to cover the various experiences I've had and to share what it's like to be adopted.
Of course, I am fully aware that these are simply my views and my experiences, but it is my hope you may find something in it. If only some mild entertainment!

Adoption Chronicles

The first in a series where I will be exploring the subject of adoption and how it has shaped and affected me. What were the hurdles, how did I discover my roots? What do roots mean to someone who is adopted? Of course, I fully understand that I can only express my own views in regards to this, sometimes heavy, sometimes light, subject and I know there are many different stories. It is my goal to treat this subject manner as respectfully as I can. 

Adoption Chronicles 1 - Identity

After deciding to go back to Korea, I figured I might as well go all out. Why not include a search for my birth family as well?
Let me know what you think!

Adoption Chronicles 2 - Going Back

I know, it sounds completely trivial, but for me, ordering food for the first time in Korea was a huge victory!! 

Adoption Chronicles 3 - Ordering Food (not as easy as you think!!)

All sorts of talk from someone looking for answers. Experiences and quasi philosophical life ponderings, for those who may enjoy sparring in this epic journey called, well, life of course!
