Hi. I'm Lee! I was born and raised in Seoul, and lived in five different countries, Canada, US, Australia, Russia and Germany. I also traveled over 40 countries mostly alone. I studied Business in Seoul with a year exchange program in US, and completed MBA in Sydney. After MBA I wanted to pursue a career change as a professor with my field experience. I was a Market researcher, Research analyst and Marketer in companies including Samsung Electronics, Ipsos and so on. Highly paying and stable job. It was what many called a good life. But I always liked to be in the nature better than the office. I hiked Kilimanjaro summit alone, Annapruna Basecamp alone, Olympus alone, Everest Basecamp, Fuji, Alps and so many other mountains in the world. ('Alone' means literally alone or with a hiking guide. In some countries you must hire a guide). Also I've led a hiking club over four years and fly overseas more than 5 times per year and hike their mountains. So I decided to have my own travel agency and operate hiking and city tours. Most of my tours are of food and hiking. Now I can hike even more often, have good food with travelers with lots of laughter and practice calligraphy everyday which I love too. Many travelers don't know we have a lot of mountains in Korea. 70% of the land is mountainous and amazingly beautiful. And the food. . . . I guess you already know. So yummy! If you visit Korea, please contact me! Just like I enjoy my hometown, Seoul, I really want others to enjoy the culture and nature too. Let's have fun in Korea together! Thank you for reading it. Hope to meet you in Korea. :-) Cheers, Lee [ International experience ] Born and raised in Seoul / Lived in 5 different countries (USA, Canada, Australia, Russia, Germany) / Traveled mostly alone over 40 countries [ Tourism ] .
