봉쥬르~ 언니!!!
핫메일 이제야 확인하고 여기 들어완..
날씨가 엄청 좋은 모양이다, 거의 여름 분위기넹~기욤은 사진으론 요망지게 보염수다^^ (many greetings from Hyeyon to 기욤)
피터는 서울 가고, 어제 와니언니하고 웃는배꼽 갔다가 얻은 바 있어 오늘은 엄마하고 저녁수련 같이 가서 상담받고, 내일부터 집중적으로 수련/치료 들어 가기로 핸.
덕분에 좋은 인연 쌓아 감수다. 배꼽 식구들 다들 언니 안부 & 위치 궁금행 하시고, 한국엔 또 다시 황사가...

hey, sis~~
I,m still in Le Puy!
We had a Korean cuisine night yesterday, cooking Bulgogi, Bindaeddeok, Kimbob and even cucumber Kimchi. ;-)
Say hello to everybody!
Here, the weather is just perfect; I didn,t imagine if it,s like this over here. Beautiful...
The keyboard is very different in France so I can,t type a lot of things, losing my temper. Ok, sis.
Take care.
I,m giving a simple meditation lesson to the members of TKD club this evening.
Oh, you can type in Korean as always. So give me news from Jeju.
