2016 – 2017 | Adventures in South Korea and Thailand

One of my good friends in the MBA got married over the holidays in Seoul, South Korea!  I was so excited and honoured to have been invited and also just excited to be back in Asia…again.  My friend and I decided to do some extra traveling abroad and also hit up Jeju in South Korea, and Bangkok and Phuket in Thailand.

We got to experience all weathers, from freezing cold and snowing to hot and sunny on the beach.  This definitely has been one of my top travel experiences thus far.

Part of the reason I loved this trip was that we were able to spend more time in each location and really enjoy and experience it, while not stressing and spending loads of time packing and moving.
