This is soooo beautiful Maia! It just can't end here! I hope we are going to have duets for at least all the Four Seasons (with apologies to A Vivaldi)...
@Maia: I have to agree with the other poster, auburngina - hope you WILL continue this series. ? - next - "A Spring Duet in Korea," hopefully?
Ahh...the ambivalence. I normally do not like to start an incomplete series. I enjoy reading them through in their entirety before moving on to the next story. In fact, I was unaware that it WAS incomplete when I started. However. You ARE a good author, and I DO enjoy your story, and I see that you post quickly. All good reasons to follow you as an author. Nice job. Thank you.
So very good! Touched me personally, as a former expat in SE Asia and also hopelessly fell in love with an Indian girl there. Attention to detail of the surroundings and people, wow. Please keep on writing when you feel the flow.
Soooo sweet. Like others, I have known female colleagues who have taught in Indonesia and Japan. It is a great opportunity but fraught with issues, particularly when it comes to same-sex relationships in Islamic or other countries with very conservative views. Your inclusion of the "survival tactics" of ex-pat teachers was very nice, along with the challenges. This enclave has given birth to and accepts the new couple. I like how you express that their continuing trysts are energetic, passionate, and fulfilling for the partners. The music is an added but important element, as many musicians access their passion through their music. I liked the small detail that the delivery food came with real bowls and implements which the delivery service picked up later. This shows a level of civilization in Korea that we sorely lack in the US. Nice contrast. Thank you.
