Hi Georgie.
Could you tell me what those items are? It seems that Craigslist has
flagged them all down. Now I am curious......
You guys all have the wrong idea about North Korea not being safe for
visitors. In fact, it might be the safest country on the planet! Did
you know that every visitor gets a "minder" who accompanies them
whereever they go. The minders can speak the visitor's language and
make sure that the visitor doesn't get lost and cannot find their hotel.
