Hi, I’m Hyunyoung Lee from South Korea. You can also call me Erin if you prefer.

Ever since I left for Australia in 2006 I kind of became a nomad. I’ve been living a simple life with less possessions and less worries, but more of appreciation and self awareness.

I have been practicing minimalism and meditation. If u r interested we can also talk about it

I don’t drink and smoke, and what else… easygoing…love healthy food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to meet locals and learn about their cultures and history - life styles, languages, foods.

Let’s hike together and listen what nature can offer.
Let’s also cook healthy yummy food.
Let’s dance stupidly if u want.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quitting a job in Philippine and start traveling solo for about a 1 year. And during that time experiencing meditation and starting to aware more of my body, myself, and surrounding. And also meeting wonderful people and the world.

And I’m still traveling

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Korean as well as English and perhaps how to make kimchi and some other Korean food.

I can share my minimalism practice and that may help u to have less heavy backpack or less messy rooms and maybe less worries ??.

I love nature especially plants if we can have a conversation on this theme will be great too.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my life and traveling stories.
Smile and calmness.

Oh, I used to host wwoofers for 10 years in Australia and in Korea for half a year. I can share that story if u like.
