South Korea, an enchanting East Asian country located on the southern half of the Korean Peninsula, is a wonder-filled travel destination known for its fascinating blend of ancient traditions and cutting-edge technology. This dynamic country is famous for its sprawling mega-city, Seoul, a bustling metropolis blending skyscrapers, high-tech subways, poignant royal palaces, serene Buddhist temples, vibrant night markets, and the iconic N Seoul Tower. Outside the urban landscapes, South Korea unfolds in a canvas of serene countryside dotted with cherry trees, tranquil rice fields, traditional thatch-roofed houses, and remote Buddhist monasteries, as well as subtropical islands and hiker-friendly mountains. Integral elements of South Korea's appeal include its rich history, the enticing Korean cuisine featuring famed dishes like kimchi and bibimbap, and the global cultural phenomenon known as the Korean Wave, which encompasses K-pop music, K-drama, and cinema.

I felt safe in this small town in South Korea , people are respective and usually unbothered about non-koreans around them.Everywhere is regulated with cctvs, which makes you feel more confident and safer. (I'm an introvert, I can't handle stares, but there I felt at ease!)
Mountains and Beaches were amazing, and the food was nice. If you can't handle spicy food, you can always have an option of fast food you're familiar with.

It was my first solo trip out of Europe. I was a little nervous. 
I prepped well but did not over done it. 

- I have been first few days in Seoul, flew to Jeju Island and after coming back to Seoul took a bullet train to Busan. 
- before the trip I have only booked the Hotel for the first days in Seoul and the flight to jeju and back but apart of that I did the rest of bookings in Korea.
- The costs in general are similar to Germany. 
- recommend following apps: agoda, narver maps, klook, 
- buy a moneycard on the airport (convenience store) for bus, trains and other stores. 
- I never felt more secure on my trip like in Korea. I even saw plp in the restaurant leaving their bags at the table and going to restroom or leaving the bags on the park‘s benches.
