Work and play from Jeju Island, South Korea

Jeju Island in South Korea is one of the incredible gems of the entire planet. It is one of the ultimate destinations for aspiring digital nomads.

Picture a tropical paradise, with stunning beaches, rock sculptures, restaurants, a volcano, mountains, waterfalls, and nature reserves. All within a peaceful, safe, clean and respectful Korean society. Balance this with world-leading wifi and comfortable cafes practically everywhere, with the ability to camp for free across the island.

You can easily work and play from Jeju Island.

In fact, we loved our two week visit on Jeju so much, we thought about one day moving here. It has changed my perspective on life, what I want to do with it, and the work I need to sustain it.

The warm weather maintained in the low to high 20s (70-85 F), rarely chilly at night, and only one of the days was drenched with rain.

Jeju is a tropical paradise.

Public Transportation on Jeju Island

The excellent public transportation system includes a multitude of buses that loop, east or west, around the island.

The 101 and 102 are express buses (W4,000) that loop east and west respectively, making fewer stops. The 201 and 202 are their slower siblings that stop far more frequently, for cheaper. Handy for those precise area stops.

Other bus systems that loop in different directions meet up with the main circular network, including direct buses between Jeju Airport, Jeju City, and the main southern city, Seogwipo.
