🇰🇷 South Korea is an extraordinary country filled with beautiful beaches, thriving cities, ancient temples, remarkable natural scenery and most importantly, friendly people. South Korea has come a long way since The Korean War ended.

5/5
Es war meine erste Gruppenreise mit Fremden und Jemima sorgte dafür, dass ich mich sofort wohlfühlte. Es gab ein paar Momente, die nicht nach Plan verliefen, aber Jemima war immer bereit, die Dinge neu zu organisieren, wenn es dazu kam. Ich würde auf jeden Fall wieder mit ihr reisen!
