A picnic in Korea's countryside

Today we had an opportunity of have a picnic with our coworker Iris and her family. Her parents have a small piece of land between Jinyeong and Gimhae (where they live) that they use as a vegetable patch. There, Iris' mother and father grow a number of vegetables including sweet potatoes, different types of cabbage and lettuce-like plants, green onions and more. We enjoyed a delicious meal called Samgyupsal, which is grilled pork with a variety of vegetables, followed by a homemade soup, coffee and fresh grapes. It was gorgeous afternoon and a great deal of fun to spend time with Iris' family.
