Unexpected Life Happenings and Amazing Camping in Korea! 🇰🇷 Korean Van Life Adventures

#vanlife #korea #koreatravel

Hello everyone! In this week’s video, we learn a huge life lesson. We start out in Goseong (고성) in Korea’s Northeast, where we were planning on doing some of the trekking courses along the Haeparang Trail (해파랑길) and received some very unfortunate news about the passing of a family member, so we headed back to Seoul to be together with the family. After spending some family time, Yujin and I talked about where we should go, and we both liked the idea of going to Japan, as it has always been one of our dreams to travel there in a van, and there is a ferry from Busan (부산) that goes to Fukuoka called the New Camellia Ferry (뉴카멜리아호) which accepts vehicles. While getting things ready, Yujin’s Dad’s health took a bit of a hit, so we made the decision to stay in Korea as the timing wasn’t right, and met an old friend of ours on the way back in Hapcheon (합천), one of the most beautiful areas in Korea to go during the fall.
