Sokcho is a coastal town in northeastern South Korea that most people only know as a base for Seoraksan National Park. And yes, that park is why you come to Sokcho, but since you’re there anyway, you might as well check out the town itself. Or at least try to check it out, because the rain really messes up my plans.
Seoraksan National Park is green and beautiful, and it’s the main reason most people come to Sokcho. You can do several hikes through nature here. And with the paved trails and many, many stairs, it’s maybe a bit less wild than I’d hoped, but still a welcome change from South Korea’s cities.
Seoul and food are inextricably linked. But let me be honest: after three days in Seoul, I can’t claim to have the best restaurant tips for you. That would take weeks, maybe months. What I can share? My first experiences with Korean food culture. The things I tried, the places I went, and especially what I thought about them. Read/eat and learn!

As a vegetarian or vegan, you’re in luck in Koh Phangan. Especially in Sri Thanu, there is a lot of choice of vegetarian and vegan restaurants. The vegetarian food in Thailand is so good that a carnivore will not even miss that piece of meat. These are my favorite vegetarian and vegan options in Sri Thanu in Koh Phangan.
I fly over rice fields and palm trees, where the morning mist slowly passes over. I can hardly imagine what life is like down there. Or what my life will look like soon: I’m flying to Koh Phangan in Thailand for a Yoga Teacher Training. I learn everything about yoga for four weeks, six days a week. This is how I experience it.
