Listen "Representative of Jeju Good Travel, Heo Sunyeong - Part 2"
Episode Synopsis
She, who was born and raised in Jeju, wanted to leave Jeju Island. After getting married, she started her life on the mainland as she wished, but only after leaving did she come to realize the uniqueness of Jeju. Upon returning to Jeju, she established a village travel program with local residents starting from Pyeongdae-ri Village, and now operates more than 10 village travel products. <Jeju Good Travel> pursues equality between travelers and local residents, fairness in transactions where profits return to small bookstores, restaurants, and accommodations, and the sustainability of Jeju by leaving minimal traces. In Jeju, where fair travel was rare, she is creating good examples of fair travel one by one. Additionally, she operates a space called <Goyo Bookstay> in the old downtown area where book clubs and stays can be done simultaneously, and organizes various activities to support libraries under the group <Jeju Library Friends>.
