Climbing Mt. Hallasan

This past week I traveled to Jeju Island, which is a small island off the Southern coast of Korea. It’s a tropical location that many Koreans refer to as the “Hawaii of Korea”. While I was there I climbed Mt. Hallasan (translated to mean “Mountain large enough to pull down the Universe”) which sits at the center of the island. It was a 7.5 hour journey total to go up and down the mountain. It had some amazing views and really gave me a good workout.
