"The real voyage of discovery consists, not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes" - Marcel Proust. Hi friends! I'm Minsik, a great hitchhiker. I've been traveling around the world since 2016. I visited so many beautiful places in this wonderful world. I made a conclusion that connecting people and being connected by people is the most precious value I could learn from traveling! That's why I started hitchhiking and couchsurfing. I spent lots of time on roads to meet new people and share time and stories. I meet people, talk and share ideas, and keep writing about it. Since I decided to be a full-time traveler, I've been trying to keep this great work all the time. I want to meet you to see a new world from your perspective! https://www.instagram.com/greathitchhiker/ I'd love to host people who want to share their travel and life stories. Couchsurfing is all about it. If you agree with the idea, please send me a personalized message, which isn't just copy and paste. Then you'll get a chance to meet a great hitchhiker!
