Hello and welcome! I’m Chung, a British citizen of Korean heritage. I divide my time between Broadbottom, UK, a charming village just 20 minutes by train from Manchester Piccadilly, and Miryang, South Korea — also conveniently located 20 minutes by train from Busan. In both places, I manage a small portfolio of properties and enjoy hosting travellers when I can. Having lived in diverse parts of the world — including Korea, Japan, the Middle East, and the UK — I deeply value meaningful connections with people from different cultures and backgrounds. A small but important note: I prefer to connect with verified members on Couchsurfing. Verification is a simple way of saying, “Hi, this is the real me”, and it helps create a foundation of trust and safety for both guests and hosts. If you haven’t yet verified your profile, please consider doing so before reaching out - I may not respond to requests from unverified users. Since 2001, I’ve also been a member of “Servas International”, a global peace and hospitality network. I joined “Couchsurfing” on May 31, 2023, and I aim to offer a welcoming and respectful space for travellers in both Miryang and Broadbottom. If you’re curious to know more, feel free to search for me on either platform by name. Just a heads-up: I don’t accept friend requests from people I haven’t interacted with yet. Travel is a big part of who I am - I’ve had the privilege of visiting around 130 countries (yes, I tried listing them all once… it wasn’t easy!). Thank you for considering a stay with me. Warm regards, Chung Farrow-Ryue
