1. First day of holidays and I had to be up at 5am so I could catch the 6am KTX train.
2. Swam in the ocean for my second time and it was as warm as my muchly missed bath tub.
3. Made friends with some of the local little boys who tried to push me further out in the ocean.
4. Had a little Korean girl so excited to talk to us that she peed herself right in front of us all....caught on tape too.
5. Thought I was smart by picking up sunscreen for today.....until I figured out it wasn't waterproof!
6. Got fried from the sun so now I look like a lobster with black hair....and I don't mind one bit! Better lots of sun than no sun.
7. Represented the foreign woman in Busan and did it stylin' a brown bikini....and unfortunetly, my cold sore too.
8. Today was the day I was suppose to get aquire my Korean name and it still hasn't been decided upon....so I'm "No Name" (like President's Choice).
9. Staying at a pretty cool hostel in Busan that we totally lucked out on, good stuff....first time at a hostel too!
10. Cheated with my diet and am heading to bed with a tummy ache.
As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).
After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.
Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.
