I came across Couchsurfing while looking for resources and tips for my trip to Europe this summer with my husband. We came across the term "cultural ambassador" while we were searching for things to do there. This seemed promising to us, especially because we are not going to simply be tourists, but to get out of our usual routine in our home in the US. I am offering free lessons in making kimchi and other Korean foods, as well as free Korean lessons, in exchange for room and board. I have experience teaching Korean cooking classes in my local women's group, as well as several years' worth of experience cooking for large groups of people.

I enjoy all types and genres of music and movies! But my favorite type of movie involves cooking and hosting; my all-time favorite movie is Babette's Feast. It's one of the main reasons why I am interested in European cooking and food.
