The 16-day Escapade to South Korea! – Itinerary, Travel Report and Tips

Having traveled to South Korea in 16 days, I couldn't really say we have been all over the country. Frankly, 16 days really isn't enough! There are just to many things to see and places to explore. Given this limited time though, I still managed to squeeze in all places and activities recommended by local and foreign tourists alike and make an itinerary me and my friend was able to enjoy.

We did not really plan to go during autumn when we booked our flight, it just happened so, which was wonderful timing, as for me this is the perfect season to travel. Not just because it's cold and you wouldn't really worry about sweating all over the place (lol mental image) and the heat of the sun clashes with the cool wind so it's just perfect. The colors of fall is just fantastic, every picture you take would look amazing!

Couchsurfing in Korea (my experience and tips for newbies) – Day 13 in South Korea

For those who have followed my posts on South Korea, you must have noticed that I always mention the word ‘host’ and ‘couchsurfing’ and must have wondered what this is.

Couchsurfing.org is a hospitality website/community that enables travelers from all over the world to find hosts from the countries they'd be visiting that would let them to crash their couches for a couple of days, for free. What's the catch? Absolutely nothing! The concept of the site is to experience culture exchange with both the guest and host. The site also hosts different events wherein you could meet up other members in the area.
