David is Laurel’s friend from Vancouver Canada. He is also a tea drinker, a birdsong seeker, a temperate rain forest enjoyer, a kyoho grape believer, and is most at ease when near water.

Some good things I’ve experienced today:

• playing with my cousins two year old twins
• the color mint gray
• editing Laurel’s wiki
• walking seokchon lake
• drinking sejak tea in a garden
• listening to brown-eared bulbul’s
• a warm evening atmosphere in jongno

오대산 hiking checklist:

• backpack
• water
• camcorder
• sunscreen
• hazlenut chocolate
• gimbap

Some good things I experienced at 오대산:

• drinking from a mountain well
• fog-draped ridges
• dewdrops on amber leaves
• entering the clouds
• a green shower
• warm homemade chai
• the soft white blur of mist
• sneaking into the garden
• velvet shank mushrooms
• glowing lanterns under cedar trees
• the distant hum of prayer
• a sense of renewal
