Would you like to help me visit Korea in 2014?

Do you enjoy my blog? Would you like to see a lot of new content? Would you like to help me go back to Korea in 2014 to produce new blogs and videos?

I want to have new content on my blog, but its really hard when I'm not there. I've thought about quitting my blog, but this is my passion!! I want to be there so bad, but teaching is not for me. I don't have any other special skills to be able to work and live in Korea. I can't afford to stay there for an extending time to travel around. (Maybe I can find a Korean man and get married. hehe).

I am planning a trip to Korea in 2014. I'd like to go between April and October. The date will depend on when I can get vacation time and finding the best prices for flights. While I am there I also plan to do a lot of sightseeing. I am going to have a packed schedule to accomplish the things on my list. I have already started making a long list of ideas. I'm going to make a lot of new content for my YouTube channel and this blog. 

I'm trying to raise funds for the trip through a site called Go Fund Me. http://www.gofundme.com/ The site uses crowdfunding to raise money for all sorts of causes. I had never heard of crowdfunding until I saw a segment on TV about someone raising money for medical expenses. I checked out the site and thought "what have I got to lose?" You sign up for an account, make a page telling why you need money, share your link, and people send donations.

 I don't have any donations yet. I hope to raise $1900 for my trip. That will cover all my expenses.

I have included a widget on the right hand side of my page if anyone would like to donate. ANY amount is appreciated.

Here is the link to my site: Valerie's Korea Trip in 2014

Even if you can't donate, Can you share my link on your twitter, blog, facebook, etc?

Also I would love to receive suggestions for what YOU would like for me to do while I am in Korea. I will probably be in Seoul 90% of my trip. What would you like for me to blog/make videos about? I have a lot of  ideas, but I also want to know what people want to see on my blog.

Give me some suggestions!
