I already know I need to head back to Busan since mid-2021. Work was draining me and I needed a break.
A lot were wondering why I didn’t go to Seoul, I would often tell them I’m not ready to head back to a busy city yet. I need the peace that Busan gives me.
You might not believe me but 1 week ain’t enough in this city! The places are far from each other that’s why you can only go to a number of places only per day.
You might see old posts being linked since I already wrote about them but I updated some posts as well!
Don’t forget to click the links attached per area to find out the step-by-step “how to go” guidelines of each place.
