Hi, I’m Simone! I’m based in Germany and work in the tourism industry, which fits perfectly with my love for exploring the world. Korea has become a second home to me—I travel there 4 to 5 times a year. While I’ve learned to live like a local, I’m still working on speaking like one! Whether it’s discovering hidden gems or soaking in everyday culture, I’m always up for a new adventure.
The accommodation for this trip includes stays in cozy guesthouses with breakfast provided or 3* hotels. You will share a twin room with one other traveler, and each room has its own private bathroom for all 20 nights. This setup offers a friendly and authentic atmosphere, while still giving you comfort and privacy after each day of exploring South Korea. If time allows, we will also spend a night in a palace-like Hanok house near Gyeongju.
