The Wandering Korean
Travel slowly. Eat locally. Connect deeply.
The Wandering Korean explores the world through culture, food, and personal storytelling.
What began as a solo journey has grown into a community of curious travelers who believe the best way to understand a place is to wander beyond the main road… and maybe eat your way through it.
About me




"Growing up, I was always the weird kid. Never chasing what everyone else wanted, no interest in the picket fence life. I dreamed of adventure on my own terms. "
Being a first-generation Korean American made that tricky to navigate sometimes, but my parents let me figure out my own path, which I'm grateful for.
As an adult, I still don't quite fit in anywhere. These days I care a lot less about that.
I always knew I wanted to travel (like, really travel) but I kept waiting for the right moment. Then 2020 happened, I turned 40, and I realized just how short life was and there were no more excuses. I booked my first solo trip: five countries, five weeks. Came home exhausted and immediately started planning the next one.
