I would encourage travelers to set their sights outside of Seoul too, and counter the stranglehold that it has on the country. Believe it or not, there is life outside of the capital city. You've been to Seoul? Have you been to Gwangju, Busan, Mokpo, etc.?

Hi Amy, this was such an informative video! Thank for all the pro tips. It really helps to hear from someone who has done it all and that too recently because things seem to have changed so much the last few years. Can I ask how you found a hostel to stay at-through goshipages? Also, would you recommend booking an airbnb instead? Do you think a week instead of two weeks would be enough time to look around and book a place?

goshiwons are definitely not for everyone, so i would recommend airbnbs if you like having more space. Goshipages is just for goshiwons, hostelworld and booking.com are good resources for booking hostels. If youre looking for a goshiwon, i think a week is plenty of time as long as you use your time wisely. I toured places for two days before moving in on the third so the process is pretty quick

i like using papago as a translator (google translator is fine too if you dont want to download yet another app haha) as for learning the language, honestly i dont have a good rec. i used duolingo for a while but i honestly learned better with immersive experience

I'm thinking of just going to Shizhou and Fenqihu for one night and then heading to Sun Moon Lake, skipping Alishan Park competely. Am I crazy? We are combining this trip with Japan where we will also see old growth forests, and the sunrise also seems to be a crapshoot. Plus my partner gets really motion sick and no remedies work so she'll also be miserable going up there and back.

@@AdventuresofAwkwardAmy I'm now thinking of renting a car, so we can spend the night in Shizhou, and then we can decide if we want to go up to Alishan the next day. What about Fenqihu turned you off? It just felt like a village for tourists? Love watching your vlogs because it brings back memories. (The first time I went to Taiwan and Japan I was your age and it was my first major solo travel trip.)
