Hello! My name is Chris. I'm currently in the midst of traveling through Korea. I just finished a semester of studying Korean language, culture and history in Busan. I've been having a blast meeting people, seeing beautiful Korea, and eating delicious Korean food! My hobby is taking pictures so I'm trying to travel all over Korea to capture all the beauty this country has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people to share stories with and learn about the area that they live in as well as ask curious questions. I really would like to make international friends that will come and visit my home in Hawaii. I would love to return the favor because I love showing my friends around my beautiful hometown.

Interests

Photography: Sunsets, sunrises, flowers, scenery, people, animals. I'm pretty new at it but I love experimenting and sharing my photos with friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

The list could go on indefinitely so I'll just leave it at first 3 musics I think of... My favorite music would have to be Incubus' "Make Yourself" album, Foo Fighters "Everlong", and Kascade Radio One Mix.

Movies: 007 series because Daniel Craig is a badass. Lucky Number Slevin, the best movie that many people don't know about. Lastly, Howl's Moving Castle & Spirited Away because those movies remind me to be more curious.

I can teach about my culture (American and Hawaiian), photography (what little I know) and language (English, Korean (basic), Hawaiian (very basic).

I want to learn about Korea as I go traveling. I'm determined to learn culture, history, and language of the places that I visit.
