For over a decade, I worked as a travel writer for Lonely Planet, with a focus on Korean destinations and cuisine. I explored everything from bustling street markets in Seoul to remote mountain temples, turning those experiences into engaging, accurate, and culturally rich travel content.
The work was deeply rewarding and offered a front-row seat to one of Asia’s most fascinating cultures, but also far more physically demanding than it may seem from the outside. Behind every polished paragraph was a long day of research, interviews, note-taking, bumpy bus rides, and unexplored coastlines.
