Someone told me that Korea is the third largest importer of coffee beans! And yet, for Canadians it’s odd: My intense hunt for a café that is open at 7 or 8 in the morning was a failure – in Hongdae of all locations. The café scene here is mind-boggling, in terms of their creative interiors, the selection they offer and the people who go there. Yet they open only at 10 am, and most close around 11 pm.

About Korean Café Culture
Published by Stefan Voswinkel, Business & Career Mentor, Photographer
I have travelled to 31 countries so far. What exploring means to me: Venture into the Yukon backcountry by snowmobile - arriving at spectacular vistas with my buddy; enjoying world cafés (non-franchise please!) and the interesting conversations that blossom there; collaborating with free spirits. I feel attracted to people who truly care and have a backbone. Accountability and life-long learning are important to me. Political correctness is not my thing. My interests include all things aviation, the global economy, entrepreneurship, drumming (funky grooves!), winter photography and Korea. I’m passionate about mentoring and coaching others. I am tutoring professionals from around the globe in conversational German and English.
