Super! A thank-you email is coming your way.

Something went wrong.

 

  • Getting an early start on Seoraksan. There are shelters on the mountain so you can pack light and sleep overnight! 📲 Roamscapes.com/explore/korea for my full guide.
  • I can't afford Paris, so this will have to do. Bedazzled by the Sands Macao resort and my Lyon Suite...
  • The Bow. Pretty much sums up my feelings about Calgary: FREAKIN' WEIRD.
  • Gwangjang Market (formerly Dongdaemun Market) is one of the oldest and largest traditional markets in South Korea with shops open through the night. Wandering around at dinnertime I found hungry patrons on the perimeters of the food stalls, eye-to-eye with piles of japchae, kimbap, soondae, and bindaetteok. The cooks chopped and stirred and ladled, stern-faced even as they prattled with their neighbors over the noise. But they would allow themselves the slightest smile whenever someone exclaimed: this is good. * Thanks @fotomaniac for the amazing edit!
  • African Elephant, spotted on safari in #Kenya. Please, don't let these magnificent creatures become tuskless!
  • Itaewon is Seoul's most multicultural and foreigner-friendly neighborhood. On an afternoon stroll along the hilly streets I found Turkish sweet shops, French bistros, the city's largest mosque, and dozens of antique shops like this one.
  • Enjoyed a marvelous sunset on my first weekend back in #Seoul, looking across the Han river to Itaewon and Namsan in the background. This time I went really local staying at a graphic designer's apartment - and it turned out to be my best Airbnb find yet! Check it out 🌇 (link in bio)
  • Going through old photos: Yanggakdo sits in the middle of the Taedong River and it's where most tourists in Pyongyang are lodged. No, I didn't visit the 5th floor. I did try to wander around the basement and came upon a set of glass doors leading to open space behind the hotel, but unsurprisingly they were locked.
