From tranquil gardens to tree-lined trails and a rail bike ride through stunning scenery—day 12 was packed with beauty, surprises, and laughter shared with my mum. Come wander through one of the most memorable days of our Korea trip.

From coastal calm to city spark, our journey came full circle. With one last breakfast in Busan, a smooth first-class KTX ride, and a surprise hotel upgrade in Seoul, the day was a gentle reminder that even returns can feel like new beginnings. Ready to ride along?

Just as we were about to say goodbye, Busan gave us sunshine. On our final day, the skies cleared, and with them came a quiet reminder: soak in every last moment. Join us as we wander through this unexpected gift of light.

Busan invited us to slow down—and we listened. From coastal strolls to steamy jjimjilbangs and a meal that still makes our mouths water, day two was all about balance, bliss, and a bit of indulgence. Ready to wander with us?

From Jeju’s calm to Busan’s charm—our Korean adventure rolled on. A little tired but still curious, we dove into a new city full of flavour, coastline, and surprises. What moments made this day unforgettable? Let’s find out together.

After days of chasing Jeju’s wonders, we did something unexpected—we slowed down. No packed itinerary. No rushing to the next stop. Just one quiet morning, a dreamy hotel view, and a moment to breathe before flying to Busan. It wasn’t part of the plan, but maybe that’s what made it so perfect.

From volcanic cliffs to legendary women divers, our second Trazy tour promised a whole new side of Jeju. The pace was faster, the group bigger, and the energy buzzier—but I was ready for it. Spoiler: not everything went to plan, but that’s all part of the adventure, right?

Day 5 on Jeju was pure magic with Trazy’s West Coast tour. From the crystal-clear waters of Hyeopjae Beach to the enchanting trails of Hallim Park and Gotjawal Forest, each stop revealed a new secret of the island. I savoured the flavours at O’Sulloc Tea Museum, 'hiked' Songaksan Mountain’s breathtaking views, and was mesmerised by Cheonjeyeon Waterfall’s beauty.

From the buzz of Seoul to the breeze of Jeju—day two took us from city lights to island skies. What surprised us, soothed us, or made us laugh along the way? Come wander with us.

Our third day in our K-adventure was one of contrasts — from soaring heights at Namsan Tower with panoramic views over Seoul, to the comforting warmth of bubbling hot pot at Haidilao. It was a day of seeing the city from above and then grounding ourselves in a meal that felt like home. Come along as we wandered between skyline and soup.

Touching down in Seoul felt like stepping into a vibrant new world — a dazzling mix of ancient traditions and cutting-edge modernity. The crisp air carried a promise of discovery, and the city’s energy was almost palpable through the airplane window. As I navigated the buzz of the airport and caught my first glimpse of this dynamic metropolis, I knew my K-adventure was truly underway. Ready to explore what awaited? Come along for the ride.

Airports are often a blur of queues, waiting games, and overpriced snacks — but this time, something was different. Nestled into the calm of the lounge, I traded the usual chaos for warm lighting, a quiet corner, and a steaming cup of tea. It was my first time flying business, and the experience gently shifted my whole perspective on travel. Curious how it all began? Read on.

Long before take-off, my itinerary began taking shape through conversations and recommendations. From honest reviews to hidden gems, I leaned into the wisdom of friends and seasoned travellers to map out the moments that would matter most. Sometimes, the best guides are the ones who’ve wandered there before you.

The adventure didn’t start at the airport—it started with a spreadsheet, a hundred open tabs, and a dream. Planning my Korea trip became its own kind of journey: full of excitement, overwhelm, and little sparks of joy as the pieces started to come together. From juggling flights to mapping out Seoul, Jeju, and Busan, this post captures the behind-the-scenes of bringing the adventure to life.

Before the plane ticket was booked, there was a quiet shift—a journey before the journey. Japan had long held the spotlight, but Korea called me in an unexpected way. What started as a spontaneous “why not?” became the spark for an unforgettable adventure through Seoul, Jeju, and Busan. This is where my k-adventure all began.
