Korea

Korea is 1 of my favorite places to travel to and I've been there approximately 10 times and counting! This section includes everything from travel tips for the first-timer in Korea, the best apps to download before visiting Korea and location-specific guides such as a 3-day Seoul itinerary, Seoul in April, and the best and worst things to do in Busan.

Note: since 2024, Korea has been in the midst of a healthcare crisis, in which many doctors have gone on strike, so it may be difficult to get timely treatment for certain medical conditions.
