Hello I am Imseong and you can call me Chris. Thank you for visiting my beautiful country. I used to teach Korean history and geography to teenagers. A few years ago, I had a chance to visit Australia and I got a lot of questions about Korea from people in various countries. I wanted to let them know not just an abstract saying of my country being beautiful but also its rich history. That is why I decided to become a tour guide, and studied to get the license. Since then, it has been over 9 years of working as a tour guide. So far I have met hundreds of people from various nationalities. I found out that I like meeting new people and having a conversation with them, sharing the experience of our daily life, history and abundant traditional culture as well. How much have you heard about Korea? There is a Korean proverb, "Better to see it once, than hear about it a hundred times. " But I can tell you "Better to see and hear than to see only' Pun on your questions, wants and needs including local daily life experience. All tours are customized and I will accompany you to bring fun and excitement to the destination of your choosing.
