About Me

I am a freelance writer who has been published two books so far. My first book was about Korea railroad traveling guide for young backpackers just like me and my second book was about my exchange student life in UC Davis, USA. I am also writing on some magazines and papers about travel stuff including CS.

I am currently residing in Seoul, my bittersweet city. I traveled all over the South Korea by train which is the theme of my first book. I also visited several countries such as China, Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Mongolia and United States. I feel like I have been so free to travel the world for many years and I need to settle down a little bit so that I realize how much I love traveling and miss it again.

(updated in April 2020) - I live in Jeju since 2016! Married in 2018, and I live with a husband and a cat now.
Can't host at the moment, but can hang out during the day.
Love doing yoga, hiking, reading.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In 2012, I traveled all around the States by couchsurfing for about 1 month. It was super fun and inspiring. I learned a lot from my CS friends. They taught me more than the college which was the original reason I headed for USA.

And I had hosted some people in Seoul and had fun just as much as I have been on couches.

As my previous couchsurfing experience was really great, meaningful to me, I want to meet more people through couchsurfing and experience more local stuff!
