Hi, I’m Jay, your local host in Seoul! This is a city that never fails to amaze me with its energy and beauty. From the breathtaking sunsets over the Hangang River to the vibrant streets buzzing with life, this city is full of charm and surprises. One of my favorite things to do is take in the stunning skyline from Namsan Tower – it’s a view that truly captures the spirit of Seoul. I have a deep appreciation for Seoul’s rich history and culture, and I love exploring its historic palaces, bustling local markets, and the newest hot spots around town. Whether we’re wandering through ancient landmarks or discovering trendy neighborhoods, I’ll share insights that connect Seoul’s past to its dynamic present. I’m here to make your visit fun, engaging, and memorable. Let’s explore the heart of Seoul together and uncover the city’s many stories!
