Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Discussing many different things with people that eventually broadened my POV. (2017)

update: Never felt alive than exploring Bryce Canyon NP during heavy snow storm. It was a rough patch from the start. While on our way to the park, my friends and I couldn't see the road and had some risky moments but we were like, "screw it, we're doing it." and kept going. We eventually got to enjoy the bad weather and started jamming some soundtracks from SF films like interstellar and horror films as if we're protagonists of a apocalypse film thriving under adversity. Once we arrived at park, we saw everyone taking pictures observatory right in front of parking lot and leaving, but we decided to take the hike. My friends and I were the only one in the park, all paths were covered in snow so it was a complete "nowhere". We were quite scared to be honest, but from the middle of journey the sky suddenly cleared and saw the amazing view of the NP. Breathtaking. So we kept going. We climbed up to the Cathedral and up a little more, and saw the marvelous view of the park. Yes it was scary but so worth it. I guess once in a while I should take a risk and throw myself into danger. (2026)

One Very Memorable Thing I've Experienced

Watching Former President Park's impeachment via facebook live on YTN news official account while I was in Japan, a sunny day standing on a subway platform waiting for a train heading to Yokohama. I still remember how excited I was. As soon as I heard the judgement, I called my friend in Korea and we were laughing in joy and screaming to each other. I can say for sure, Korean peninsula was partying at that moment. Facebook feed was full of that news since everyone was sharing it, everyone was happy saying "Democracy won." It was a very meaningful moment to us because we achieved it without any violence. (2017)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach you how to speak some useful Korean words, good Korean restaurants, and nice hidden places. If you're into kpop, I can teach you some choreos of kpop songs like "like Jennie" and others. I'm master at finding cheap flights if that's helpful to you haha

I'd love to learn whatever you are willing to teach me!
