around the world

D and I have just embarked on a trip around the world.

We started planning our trip last year, and did a lot of research before buying a Star Alliance RTW ticket. It's actually a really good deal; roughly $3000 for economy class (for up to 29,000 miles and 16 segments), you can take up to a whole year to complete the trip, and all you have to do is start and stop in the same place, and keep going (mostly) in one direction, East or West.

The first stop is Seoul, Korea (well, we're currently in the Taipei airport, but that's practically our second home, airport-wise). I expect to be eating and photo-blogging lots of yummy Korean food very soon...
