About Leah

Hi! I’m Leah

your local Korean friend and travel companion from the moment you decide to visit Korea until the moment you fly back home.

I created Leah in Korea because I know how overwhelming it can feel to plan a trip to a country where the language, culture, and daily routines are completely different. Even simple things—like ordering coffee, navigating the subway, or choosing the right neighborhood to stay in—can feel confusing without someone to guide you.

I grew up in Korea, spending years exploring cafés, markets, local neighborhoods, and hidden spots that don’t usually appear on travel apps or social media. Friends from abroad would always ask me the same question:

“Can you help me plan my trip to Korea?”

And I did—again and again.
I helped them build itineraries, understand cultural basics, avoid tourist traps, and experience Korea the way locals do. Every time they returned home, they’d say:

“Traveling Korea was so easy because you were there with me.”

That sentence inspired this site.

🌿 What You’ll Find Here

My mission is simple:
