"Being a first-generation college student and having immigrant parents, my dream was to travel. My younger self would've never imagined that there would be chances for me to make those aspirations come true. Seoul is ideal for you if you enjoy Korean cuisine, the language, or entertainment, or even if you are just seeking for a place a lot different from your country."
