Two young men seeing the world together👨🏼🤝👨🏻🌍 -- I'm Oskar🧔🏻 and I'm Dan👱🏻♂️ Oskar was born and raised in Sweden🇸🇪 Dan was born in London to a Swedish mom and an American dad🇬🇧 He moved to Sweden at 9 y/o👦🏼 At 16, Oskar moved to the United States for a year as an exchange student👨🏻🎓 When returning to Sweden, Oskar joined Dan’s class in school📚 In April 2015, when we were 17, we took our first trip together to Rome. Since then, we’ve had a hard time standing still🏃🏻♂️🏃🏼♂️ After high school, we took a gap year and traveled to 18 new countries🗺 We spent two years at an international university, which allowed us to live in San Fransisco🇺🇸, Seoul🇰🇷, and Hyderabad🇮🇳 After that, we decided to make travel a full-time thing, and since 2019, we’ve been on the road almost constantly🧳 We visited our 100th country in December 2022, and now we continue sharing our travels, hopefully making the world a little more open and compassionate along the way❤️ See you around the world👋🏼

Video Description
Over the past few decades, South Korea has had one of the most miraculous economic and social transformations in history. But has this come at too big of a cost? And what is it really like to be a young South Korean today? In this video, we're in Seoul's most expensive and aspirational neighborhood: Gangnam, looking for the dark side of the South Korean miracle. We join a tour organized by a young Korean wanting to share a more nuanced perspective on South Korea's economic success. June's tour: https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/878875?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=6be7fb35-21d9-4052-9f2a-e6761ab90d2c *We did not partner with June on this tour or receive anything for free, but we wanted to share his tour because we enjoyed it so much* ---------------------------------- We’re Oskar🧔🏻 and Dan👱🏻♂️, and we believe that anyone regardless of who they are deserves to live their dreams. For the past nine years, we’ve continued pushing boundaries by traveling and living across the world, including places like Uganda, Brunei, and Saudi Arabia. In 2022, we reached a huge milestone by visiting 100 countries together and we’re now sharing our journey of finding a home around the world, hopefully making it a little more open, compassionate, and peaceful along the way❤️ Thank you for being a part of the journey! ---------------------------------- - Instagram: www.instagram.com/oskaranddan - Music: http://share.epidemicsound.com/nqD7H ---------------------------------- South Korea was our 40th country together🌍 During the rest of our group trip, we got up to lots of cool and unforgettable things, from visiting an off-the-beaten-path part of the Korean DMZ, meeting a North Korean defector living in Seoul, hiking Seoul's tallest mountain Bukhansan, doing an incredible food tour of Gwangjang Market, and more.
