WREXHAM AFC PROMOTED AGAIN this time to LEAGUE ONE!

Wrexham AFC sealed BACK-TO-BACK promotions for the first time in their history! Not to mention doing it in style with a 6-0 victory over Forest Green Rovers! And we went to Wrexham to participate in the celebrations! Formed in 1864, Wrexham is the oldest club in Wales and the third-oldest professional association football team in the WORLD. Long suffering after years of mismanagement and neglect, they spent 15 years in the national league before Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took over and which much thanks to coach Phil Parkinson. Now just 3 years on, they are in League 1 for the first time since 2005! If you haven't seen Welcome to Wrexham on Netflix, you really should check it out! It is brilliant, funny, and even picked up a prestigious Emmy award in January! #wrexham #wrexhamafc #footballnews #ryanreynolds #robmcelhenney 👩🏻‍💻READ OUR TRAVEL BLOG and FIND OUR PHOTOGRAPHY! ✍🏻 BLOG & WEBSITE https://www.closerlives.com/jenn-and-leon-travel-blog 💼Business inquiries 📧 EMAIL contactus@closerlives.com 📧 JENN abroadperspective@closerlives.com 📸 INSTAGRAM @jennandleontravel https://www.instagram.com/jennandleontravel/ 💁🏻‍♀️JENN https://www.instagram.com/_a_broad_perspective 🙋🏻‍♂️LEON https://www.instagram.com/leon.gregori213/?hl=en FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/JennandLeonTravel *KOHO ONLINE BANKING* open a Canadian account as a new user using our code: LBJDEPD4 https://www.koho.ca/referral/ Once you spend $20 in the first 30 days, you’ll get the $20 cash back OR 3 of the extra plan for a value of $27 *EXPEDIA* book your first trip/hotel/car rental/flight as a NEW USER with a min. spend $230 and receive $30 off sign up through link: https://www.expedia.ca/refer?refcode=JenniferJNfW4 *AMAZON* our Travel Must Have’s on Our Storefront https://amzn.to/3PJajs5 *EPEDEMIC SOUND* The music we use for our vlogs.

What it's really like to visit the North Korean Border (DMZ tour)

What it's really like to visit the North Korean Border (DMZ tour)

The Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a strip of land running across the Korean Peninsula that serves as a buffer zone between North Korea and South Korea dividing Korea almost in half. In this day tour from Seoul we learn about the history and ongoing conflict between the 2 sides and look into the illusion that is presented as North Korea. We also visit the infamous third tunnel. The DMZ serves as a reminder that the desire for reunification continues to flicker, waiting for the right conditions to reignite. While it might evoke a sense of sadness and frustration, it ultimately encourages reflection and hope. It certainly made us far more aware of the human cost of conflict, the power of resilience, and the enduring desire for a peaceful and unified future for the Korean people. Sadly, the tensions between the two countries are at an all-time high. There is every chance that the DMZ may once again become the epicenter of another major conflict, and this might just be the last chance you may have to visit it.

About our channel

We create travel & lifestyle vlogs from around the world, about the world! We share our travel experiences both as tourists and living locally as digital nomads. In April 2021 we quit our jobs, packed up our stuff and MADE the bold move to TRAVEL FULL-TIME. We believe travel fosters understanding, compassion and reflection in ways nothing else truly can!

 

We love meeting new people and learning about the local cultures in all of the countries we visit. TRAVEL has ALWAYS been a part of our journey with 14 countries in our first year BEFORE we started full time! We got engaged at Aphrodite's Rock in Cyprus and celebrated our engagement in Paris. We have been together for 5 years. Jenn is Canadian in her late 40's and Leon is British in his late 30's!
