Annyeong Digital Nomads Korea community!

This July has been so weird. It’s not that hot, not that humid, not that rainy. 

Locals are calling it ‘the cool summer’. 

Not that we’re complaining. With 27 to 35 degrees in the air, it’s still very much beach weather, and we can’t wait to head there in August 🫠

See you in Busan!
