About Me

ABOUT ME
****After long long trip in Europe I am finally back to Seoul! I cannot host but any request for meeting up and chat is welcomed XD****************

Before moving to the Netherlands for studying one semester, I thought travelling abroad to far away countries is other people's story. I major geography and always study about the land and the world, but it was only in textbook.

But I became to know couchsurfing and tried to travel as much as possible when I was staying in Europe. To be honest, I am very shy when I am with strangers. But at the same time, I am always interested in people, and want to listen their story.

I am trying to think in new ways, enjoy challenges, and overcome my shyness(it is pretty successful haha). I have no idea where would be my next destination. But I am sure wonderful stories and people are waiting for me in the future.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a good listener and want to learn from you. It doesn't need to be a big and special stories. What do you eat for breakfast? What kind of movie dou you like? Where have you travelled and where do you want to go next time?

I can answer questions about Korea(especially climate or geography.... Haha it is not that boring then you imagine). My passion is cooking! I can teach you most of Korea's traditional food! Just give me the name of the dish and we are gonna make it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

People say I have a good handwriting,, but actually I think Korean is just beautiful letters itself. I would love you write your name in Korean.

And cooking! We can cook together something traditional or just improvise XD
