As we concluded our trip and prepared to return to Seoul, I surprised my girlfriend with a small cake, a heartfelt letter, and a toy figurine, encapsulating the affection that had grown even deeper through our shared experiences.
This trip taught me something invaluable: while solitary travel has its own merits, the true essence of happiness on the road comes from sharing the journey with someone you deeply care about. The natural beauty of Namhae provided a perfect backdrop, but it was the shared smiles, laughter, and small moments with my girlfriend that truly made this trip unforgettable.
