I enjoyed this guest post, Portia. Thanks for alerting me to Hyun Woo Kim's newsletter. I'm already subscribed to the others you mentioned. Apart from the Versailles Century, I'm also interested in the courtly (and other) cultures of the East. I used to have a website called Lotus & Persimmon, on which I wrote about the countries I lived in and visited during my time in northeast and southeast Asia. In any case, Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to you too, David! I remembered you said you lived in Seoul, and I think you should re-publish Lotus & Persimmon's posts (what an evocative name) on here too. I'd love to read them.
I might revive Lotus & Persimmon if I ever follow through on thoughts of retiring to Bangkok, where I also once lived. Mastering Thai, at least in its spoken form, remains a personal goal.
Happy New Year, Portia! 🧧🐍🎉
Happy New Year, Xue!🥟🥠🥂

You can do it, David, that'd be awesome!
