I'm a Korean American adoptee who returned "home" to discover who I am, foster the relationship with my birth family, travel, and teach. I traversed Asia and Australia on a small budget while not skimping on experiences. I share some stories and travel guides to get you started on a life on the road. Starting February 2018, I will be starting service as a Peace Corps volunteer in Zambia.

Where Am I Now?

Tokyo, Japan

🇮🇳The roads in Indian cities are often congested. A mash of rickshaws, bicycle, cars, taxis, and cows coexist and flow in a seemingly chaotic but somehow harmonious manner. Honking is a form of communication, not an angry yell, so to say the least, it was noisier than what we're used to. So, we enjoyed the peaceful walk on this tree-lined road in Mysore. A honk every ten seconds instead of two was a treat! Navigating the traffic in India is an experience in it of itself! . . . . Our first rickshaw driver in Kerala had Gangam Style blasting with disco lights when he learned that we had just come from Korea. He took us to a fake version of the Taj Mahal. Do you have any stories with rickshaws or tuk tuks? . . . #_travelersofindia#indiatravelgram#indiagram#inspiroindia#mysore#trees#slowtravel#indiatravel#everydayindia#travelblogger#nomadlife#openmyworld#india_vacations#worldtravelpics#beautifuldestinations#sheisnotlost#travelandlife#worlderlust#neverstopexploring#worldtraveler#wearetravelgirls#indiaclicks#exploremore#nomadlife#mytinyatlas#gltlove#Indiapictures#exploretheglobe#tipusultansummerpalace#IncredibleIndia

🇹🇭 The "Black House", or Baan Dam in Chiang Rai is an eclectic collection of dark art and animal carcasues in Balinese-influenced buildings. The grounds were provoking and eerie, especially since there was little explanaton of the artist's intentions. A unique place for sure, but maybe steer clear if you're vegan. . . ┈ ┈ ┈ What's a really quirky place you've visited? . . . . . #visitthailand#blackhouse#southeastasia#traveltheworld#chiangrai#worlderlust#seetheworld#gltlove#travelblog#globetrotter#backpackerpic#travelgram#openmyworld#asianarchitecture#exploremore#passionpassport#travelwithpurpose#beautifulseasia#travelblogger#worldtraveler#travelasia#traveling#sheisnotlost#mytinyatlas#travelandlife#northernthailand#travelawesome#beautifuldestinations#Backpackingasia#travellife

🇹🇭 I (Lianne) don't ever recall seeing a waterfall until I started traveling in 2010. Growing up, family vacations mostly consisted of amusement parks and museums, nothing too crazy. My youth was wrapped up in gymnastics and academia. I remember the moment my best friend convinced me to travel to Asia when we graduate university. It took some time for me to peel away from my workaholic life, but six months after that discussion, I dropped all five of my jobs and set off with a backpack and my best friend. And the rest is history. ┈ ┈ ┈ Do you come from a family of travelers? When did you catch the travel bug? . . . . #visitthailand#waterfall#southeastasia#traveltheworld#chiangrai#worlderlust#seetheworld#gltlove#travelblog#globetrotter#backpackerpic#travelgram#openmyworld#responsibletravel#exploremore#passionpassport#travelwithpurpose#beautifulseasia#travelblogger#worldtraveler#travelasia#naturepic#sheisnotlost#mytinyatlas#travelandlife#northernthailand#travelawesome#beautifuldestinations#Backpackingasia#getoutside
