Is this a persons worst fear? A stranger, a benign tourist — me, takes your photograph. Within hours that image is on the world wide web. Welcome to modern life. Strange, odd and a little unnerving. I saw these two on the street, they were photographing each other. Apparently they are getting married tomorrow. They asked me to use their camera to take some pictures of them together. I did, but of course asked to take a few of my own. I had the feeling this whole spectacle was a prank. But at least you can see traditional Korean dress before it's gone, because I've been told the new generations refuse to wear it.

The majority of my day was spent photographing female politicians. I heard their stories about how they were inspired to enter politics and the challenges they face in recruiting more women to run for office. They have the same struggles all working mothers face — keeping your family happy and running smoothly while being successful at your job. Their paths are not an easy life, but they are inspirational and motivational as I think they have sacrificed much for the virtue of many. I'm so happy to be coming home tomorrow night. I lose a day while traveling. I leave at 7:30 pm and arrive at 6:30 pm the same day. I'll be flying against the earth's rotation. That's weird too.
