Seoul Itinerary

Welcome to Seoul, South Korea! Here’s a quick breakdown of our 6-day trip in June 2022. Note: This trip took place while I was stationed at Camp Humphreys in Pyeongtaek, about 45 minutes south of Seoul by train. Because of that, you won’t find any airport or flight details in this itinerary. We explored a mix of local spots and took in the vibrant culture of Seoul, enjoying both modern and traditional experiences. Below is the google maps listing all the locations for this trip.
