    Ep. 33 BACK IN NORTH KOREA - Rason Edition.
    Feb 17 2025

    North Korea has been closed for 5+ years. And we all waited for it to open. Finally, now the day has come. Well, is coming. Rason will open on the 20th Feb and maybe Pyongyang soon after, let's hope.


    For now, I chat to special guest, friend, and colleague Greg who just got back from Rason in North Korea after being invited there on a special delegation.


    Tours start on the 20th Febuary, tours open for booking that I'm leading in March are as follows;


    March 1-8 (from Beijing)

    Ep.32 What is it like to visit North Korea now?
    Jul 4 2024

    I chat with Veronika who was one of the Russians to visit North Korea recently and who posted her trip on social media. She tells us all about her trip to North Korea!

    NOTE: The North Korean borders are NOT yet open. Some limited Russian tourist groups are currently permitted to go in only. Sign up to this newsletter or WhatsApp group for border opening updates.


    My biggest thanks to Veronika for spending her time for this episode, and forever jealous of your visit!

    Check out Veronika's page on the links below. I love the aesthetic!
