And their means of travel is their
fully-equipped van, laden with a world map, and the Korean van, where they can
weave through landscapes, and unravel the stories of local communities,
customs, and cultures. As Jordan News had the opportunity to sit down
with the couple, you cannot help but smile at their infectious energy.
As they made their stop in Jordan, the couple
took to the Kingdom’s landmark sites, from Wadi Rum to Petra, and the seven
hills of Amman in between. Describing Jordan as a captivating tapestry, they
share that Jordan’s hospitality is unmatched. Their next stop will be Qatar.
This year, the couple has covered a diverse
array of countries like Georgia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Mongolia,
Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Bahrain, and Iraq. Their goal? To set a record by
clocking an impressive 250,000 kilometers in two adventurous years.
Building connections Beyond the miles, their journey is about
building connections. Every door they knock on opens to warmth, generosity, and
unforgettable experiences. Names, memories, and wishes are etched onto their
caravan, creating a living diary of their extraordinary odyssey.
Redefining happiness Amid financial challenges and two heart
surgeries, Hyeon Min redefines happiness. For him, it is about adding value to
life and pursuing passions. With a tech-savvy van, equipped with security
cameras, they aim not just to explore but to spread a powerful message of love
and peace – the universal languages of humanity.
A call to action Their story is not just a travelogue; it is a
call to action. Recognizing the world's challenges, they passionately advocate
for an end to wars and bloodshed. In their unique journey as the first Muslim
travel duo, they strive to make a positive impact, hoping for a world where
headlines of conflict and tragedy become relics of the past.
Join this intrepid duo as they navigate the
twists and turns of their adventure, leaving behind a trail of inspiration and
a testament to the transformative power of love and peace.
