This is my attempt to keep a record of people I have come into contact with over the years, hopefully to serve as a catalyst for memories and perhaps add some significance to past and present relationships. Some of the people found on this list are close friends, and some are more like friendly acquaintances. Along with a name and photo, there is also a short description of how I know them, what we've done together, or why I put them on the list.  Above the photo, you will notice a flag and a date, signifying in which country and what year I met the individual.

As one could imagine, it is an intimidating task to put together such a list. Naturally, not everyone I have ever come in contact will appear in this section, and as such I anticipate there will be either hurt feelings or angry feelings towards me for either including or omitting a certain person. I apologize in advance if you feel you deserve to be on the list and you are not. Bear in mind it is still in the making and you may appear on it at a future time. Feel free to prod me by sending me your picture and a note by email if you want to see yourself on here.

I have categorized people based on the context of our first meeting. Thus, some Americans will appear in the Korea section, as I first met them in Korea, etc. Sub categories are ordered primarily chronologically, though that rule is not consistent. In any case, it is with pleasure that I present you with KCKERN.COM Friends.
