About Andrew Tisue

After graduating from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture, I made the decision to move to South Korea with my girlfriend Amanda, so we could experience a completely foreign culture and country while enabling us to reflect on our recent education, and make plans for our future.

Ziplining!

Last weekend we went up to the city Daegu and met up with our friends Becky and Nick along with 5 other foreigners that live in Mokpo. We spent Saturday checking out the city (see photos) and Sunday at Herb Hillz Eco Park. In 2008 they opened something called an "Eco Adventure" which involves maneuvering through a number of obstacles up in the trees while being attached via a harness. After the harness training we told the workers we wanted to do the hardest course: the Tarzan! but he looked at us and just said: Oh no! So hard! and shook his head... Well, we told him we didn't come all this way to not go all out, so we did it anyway. Here's a map and diagram showing all 13 stations throughout the course, and a video of me coming down the zipline from station 9 :)
