A Korean man turned a routine life into an extraordinary adventure by using his ending four-year jeonse (a Korean long-term rental deposit system) contract timing and an extended leave benefit to travel across Africa. In his book, the author—who describes himself as an ordinary “Korean standard”—chronicles trips to more than 50 African countries, from well-known destinations like Kenya and South Africa to lesser-known gems such as Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. The book combines vivid travel essays and rich photographs capturing landscapes, everyday life, and major landmarks, plus candid reflections on experiences like encountering racism and practical travel-planning tips from a seasoned traveler. It’s recommended for readers tired of repetitive routines or curious about African travel who want both inspiration and practical know-how.
