We felt your tears! As a father, I’m proud of your decision to adventure to a foreign country especially being able to work remotely. That says a lot about your independence and going out of your comfort zone, which many do not. You owe it to yourself to see Korea once it really opens up. The fun and adventures will be twice as much. Busan is another place I think you will enjoy along with Myeongdong when it’s wall to wall with people and street food vendors. We enjoyed your vlogs and look forward to your future trips.

Malia…Your videos/adventures remind me of my younger self. I remember being in my 20’s and needed to travel by myself for work conferences/events. Being a girl from Hawai’i (originally) that was really a scary thing. Navigating planes, cars, hotels, new people, new cultures, was definitely scary to the point that I would try to find an excuse to cancel. With each trip, I grew stronger, gained more confidence and took on the solo “adventures”. It has definitely made a difference in my life. When I doubt myself, I just remember….been there, done that, you can and will be successful. That has carried me throughout my life (I will be 60 yrs, this year). I’m so excited and happy for you and the beautiful future I know you will have with your positive disposition. Hang in there, stay strong! The best is yet to come!!!! Aloha pumehana 💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋💜🌸🦋

Hi Malia! I honestly teared up watching this vlog because after watching all your Korea vlogs, it made me realize that I should also take my first solo trip to Seoul in the future! If not, I will for sure regret it. I too have grown to appreciate the culture and the many things Korea has to offer and I know I will enjoy it very much and live my best life when I take the courage to travel there. Thank you for sharing your experience and I look forward to watching your future vlogs! :)

Hi! I found your channel a right before I was set to move to Korea for a teaching job, and we arrived to Korea and we did quarantine about a week apart! Through this whole journey, your channel has given me a lot of comfort! It made me feel like I had someone alongside me who was figuring out life in Korea the same exact time as me. I loved watching your videos and finding out we did the same exact things but just about a week or so apart haha! Literally the EXACT same cafes, places, stores, and restaurants! When you started crying in your video, not gonna lie, I also got really sad for you too and I’m sad you’re no longer in Korea too :( I hope you make your way back here soon! :)

Your vlogs were really great- I haven't watched them fully because of my own trip and all. But I loved how you edited them and the way you added so much of yourself into them.
