The World and Alex

The World and Alex

Welcome to my channel, The World and Alex.

My name is Alex, and in December of 2023, I quit my job, sold my apartment and all my belongings to pursuit a lifelong dream of traveling full time.

The idea of traveling solo, as a middle-aged man, is both exciting and daunting, so I decided to bring my camera, and document my experiences. Not only to share my journey but also in the hopes of showing how amazing and wonderful traveling and the world truly is. 🌍

My goal is to visit the traditional sights as well as the lesser-known places - on a budget - and do some volunteer work with animals whenever possible.

    Avoid Gwangjang Market because it is very expensive. Myeong-dong is a place that deals with foreigners. I would like to recommend places like. Olympic Park. Jamsil Lotte Tower (the tallest building in Korea), Korea has many delicious food, so try it. Most Koreans are kind and helpful. Have a nice trip to Korea

    First time seeing one of your vlogs. You seem a lovely guy. Great job presenting India in all its contrasting glory. Sad that it was such a short visit as there is so much to see in Delhi. I agree with you on the Delhi Red Fort, good to visit the outside and around the entry gate but Agra's Rad Fort is far more interesting to visit. Keep up the good work!
