2009, January => I met him since in the early of 2000s. He is an American who is working as an English instructor for Tamna Educational Institute and the Jeju Foreign Language Learning Center. Beyond the job, he is a swimmer and a juggler, a reader and a writer.
In the middle of October 2006, he visited in Seoul where I have a solo exhibition and he wanted to buy one of special oil painting which was painted in Australia 2006. It's title was 'Natural Bridge'.

I have a special experience when I had a trip in America 2002.
At that time he wanted to ask to paint his burned cabin as followings. Maybe he wanted to keep for a long time of his beautiful memories with the cabin...

Chang-Han,

My birthday was very strange this year.

I could not spend the day with my family because I was in Chicago securing my E-2 visa for Cheju. Then, when I came back from Chicago, I had a party at my father's summer cabin. The party was nice for the weekend, but then there was a disaster. When my friends and I left on Sunday night, I think there was a candle still burning in the cabin. On Monday, the cabin burned down. Now there is nothing left but ash. It is a sad tragedy.

Today and tomorrow I will be making reservations and arrangements for your trip. I have had an important new idea about the itinerary. I think we will be uncomfortable with too much driving if we follow the first plan of one city every night. My new plan is like this:


1st - Chicago (Art Institute, Museum of Science and Industry, Navy Pier, etc.)

2nd - Bloomington (Indiana University, Hoosier National Forest, etc.)

3rd - Evansville (Many intersting shopping places, art museum, etc.)

4th - New Harmony, Indiana (Very historical and beautiful village)

5th - If possible, I would like for you to make a painting of the cabin which burned down. This would be a wonderful gift to me and my father, and we can hang the painting of the old cabin in the new cabin when it is built. The location is next to a lovely river and very close to New Harmony, so this means one more night in New Harmony. There is a very nice resort there.


6th - St. Louis, Missouri (famous arch, gardens, museums, etc.)

7th - Return the rental car on this day and take the AMTRAK train from St. Louis to Penn Station in New York. This will be a more comfortable way to see the country and city views on the way to New York. The total cost will be approximately $400 for your family. I don't know whether I will be coming along or whether you will be okay meeting your student there when you arrive.

8th - New York city.


Please tell me soon your thoughts about this plan.

It is more relaxed and will be better I think especially for the kids.

I can make the AMTRAK reservations.

Yes, it is very hot here. This is another reason I am worried about so much driving as we planned before.


I am very worried about your plan to go to Florida. It is a very famous tourist area, and of course there are wonderful things to see there, but it may be too much for your budget.

Write back soon,   Daniel
