Autumn is one of the best times to visit Korea. Clear, blue skies, refreshing temperatures and incredible autumn foliage will leave you gawking at its beauty. Head to Nami Island, Seoraksan, or any of Seoul’s public parks for a kaleidoscope of colour.
Beach season is over in much of the world, but you can still enjoy a swim in Thailand, Bali or the Maldives. Head to Koh Lipe in Thailand, or visit a local island like Maafushi, for an interesting budget stay in the Maldives.
