Colorado Saram and dog (Winnie) at Conan Beach, Jeju Island - South Korea.

John Buckley

I grew up in the renowned ski resort town of Vail, Colorado, but I’ve lived in South Korea for over 15 years, working as an English teacher.

Colorado Saram means "Colorado person" in Korean.

For more than 20 years, I’ve traveled the world, maintaining my Colorado lifestyle while pursuing my passion for international travel in Asia and beyond.

I write about international skiing, hiking, outdoor adventures, dog-friendly travel, travel gear, and more.

Read more about the journey that led to the creation of Colorado Saram and how I aim to help you bring the spirit of Colorado adventure to your international travels!
