Welcome to But First, Explore, a multimedia blog dedicated to travel, learning, teaching, and living in the big, wide world. Join me, Betsy, as I navigate the delights and dilemmas of living and teaching on Korea's west coast, and everything that comes next. Plus, check out more information on Southeast Asia through my backpacking trips and weekend adventures. It's true, there are an infinite number of travel blogs, but I hope that my site can offer you a few insights into Korean culture, living abroad, and more.
