CURRENT MISSION

travelling in the world for one year

ABOUT ME

I'm Kwang-hyun Lyu who loves to climb and travel.
One of the most excited trip is when I was in Philippine. Because that was my frist overseas trip in my life.
I just took one small backpack and changed buses over 200 times visiting the countries and backwoods which were not even in a guidebook.
Natives' hospitality really impressed me for the whole time I stayed.
I also felt a feeling of affection from the people while traveling alone on a bicycle trip in Korea.
The goal of this trip is to visit many korean businessmen who are running their own business in all the countries of the world and interview them about how to challenge the venture.
Just popular tourist attractions in a guidebook is not the one that I'm looking forward to. Traditional markets or somewhere else the local people truly love are the ones that I'm looking forward to.
I just enrolled Servas, so I still couldn't have a chance to be a host yet. After meeting good people living in foreign countries through this time, I want to have an opportunity to share all the kindness and good memories that I have received.

PHILOSOPHY

i want to challenge my life and I want to help those people who do have an a ambition to comply their dream but who do not have enough money or do not have a possibility
