You reap whatever you sow.
ABOUT ME
I am Korean, but I can speak English fluently. I went to school in America and am studying in New York now. I am also trying to learn Mandarin as I am very interested in learning about different cultures. In my spare time, I like to watch movies. I have a dog. I am in deep love with animals, though big ones scare me. But I think animals deserve better lives on earth. I also love drawing. Recently, I became interested in calligraphy.
PHILOSOPHY
Sometime I wish I could know what would happen in the future so that I do not have to be worried about the future in the present time. However, I think it is really fun that the future is not decided, and it can be changed by every move I make. So I want to be responsible for each one of my action and word.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My friend told me CS was one of the best experiences in her life. I want to be a part of this experience as well!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hope I meet good friends on CS and make more experiences!
Interests
I generally become fascinated in many different topics, but my biggest interest is in movies. I also love food. I am not a picky person at all. I do not hold prejudice against cultural dishes. And finally, I love listening to music. Sometimes I like to listen to soundtracks of certain movies, new age, jazz or just pop songs.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite movie is Big Fish by Tim Burton. But I think there are too many movies that are so good. I just decided Big Fish has to be my favorite because this movie made me I had to learn about movies to appreciate movies. I love Hans Zimmer many pop artists too. My favorite book is Jubilee and The Great Gatsby.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The magical moments when I first met my dog. I used to be afraid of dogs as I was a child. Dogs are tangible happiness and it was one of the most cherishable moments when I first met her.
And I want to go sky diving when I have enough money.
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to learn MANDARIN! I learned Japanese, French, Italian, Latin, Greek and Spanish. But I cannot speak any of these languages. I am now starting again to increase my language skills. I can speak English and Korean fluently. I have taken Mandarin classes for about 8 months. Once I become good at Mandarin, I want to learn about Japanese and French again. If anyone is interested, I want to teach English and Korean :)
