Bingsunami!

I know folks back home are reveling in their pumpkin spice lattes and candy corn, but I have been ALL ABOUT the bingsu this week.

Bingsu is Korea's version of shaved ice dessert. It seems like many Asian countries have their own take on it and I am definitely loving Korea's! I have had one almost every day since arriving since it's the tail end of bingsu season. So before the temperatures drop down much lower, I present to you... bingsu!

OREO BINGSU! With red beans and condensed milk lovingly laced through the snowy interior. I'm more than a little excited.
Green tea bingsu! The taste was un-matcha-ble.
I berried my spoon right to the bottom!
This one cured the tiramisery of jet lag.
O-pun sesame! Omnomnomnom...
I just settled in at the SBC orientation center where we will be receiving teaching and cultural training for ten days before moving to our various towns in Jeollanamdo. Opening ceremony tomorrow morning!
