Ugh the Seoul-soul-sucking traffic story made me chuckle as the driving there is terrifying 😅

I loved reading all of this. So beautiful.

It really is so scary, isn’t it? After I took Lil to her PT appointment the other day--not even in Seoul, but in the city nearby--I came home feeling shellshocked and bullied. Call me crazy, but I just don’t understand honking at people who refuse to run pedestrians over in the sidewalk. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thanks so much for reading! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I love the music analogy at the end - such a beautiful sentiment! Also, dad in charge = fart song. Pretty classic if you ask me. :-)
