We left the UK to travel permanently and Seoul, South Korea was our first stop.

Today we're seeing another side of this enormous city, from N Seoul Tower to the streets of Hongdae…with plenty of food along the way.

Want to know how we travel permanently? Comment “HOW” below.

We start the day with what seemed like a good idea: walking up to N Seoul Tower.

No water. Lots of steps. And one of us isn't exactly brilliant with heights. 😂

After making it to the top and checking out the incredible views across Seoul, we decide the cable car might be the slightly easier option back down.

But this day becomes about much more than Seoul Tower.

🏬 Exploring a Korean department store food hall
🥑 Discovering just how much an avocado costs in Seoul
🚶 Wandering the Red Road towards Hongdae
🔥 Trying traditional Korean BBQ
🍜 And generally getting distracted by food everywhere we go

One thing we're quickly learning about Seoul is just how HUGE it is. Every neighbourhood seems to reveal something completely different.

And that's exactly why we're here.

We left our old life in the UK to travel the world permanently and find out whether we can actually build a completely different way of living, one that gives us more freedom, more experiences and hopefully a sustainable future on the road.

We haven't got it all figured out. We're documenting it as it happens.

If you're planning a trip to Seoul, love South Korea, or you're curious about what happens when two ordinary people decide to change their lives and travel permanently, subscribe and come along with us.

Next stop: Sokcho. 🇰🇷

Would you WALK up to N Seoul Tower… or take the cable car? 😂
