Currently passing through Türkiye, I’m living on my bike, carrying all the essentials for survival.

I’m on my way back home to Seoul 🇰🇷,
from Germany, with my bike and my best friend, Levin.

I graduated from fashion design university in Korea and worked in the fashion industry for four years. However, I quit because I had a vision to establish my own company that creates bikepacking wear.

After quitting, I embarked on a pilgrimage to the Camino de Santiago to rediscover my humanity, which I had lost during my hard-working era. (Back then, I worked like a machine, around 13 hours a day🙂‍↕️)

Thanks to that pilgrimage, I met my great companion to embark on this long journey together, and here we are! 🚴🏻‍♀️🚴

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

“The only thing I could ever need, the only one worth striving to be—it’s love.”

This is a line from my favorite song by Sara Bareilles, “Bottle it up.” I completely agree with that sentiment.

Hosting from Couchsurfing is like traveling the world from the comfort of my own home. I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, learning about their traditions, and understanding their perspectives. It’s an opportunity to connect with good people and gain insights into their lives. I find the process of getting close to others and sharing ideas incredibly stimulating. Just thinking about it makes me excited.

教，学，和分享

I can’t formally teach Korean, but I can share a few little tricks to sound more local.

For example, if you say “nya-seo~” with the right tone and rhythm, Koreans will totally get that you mean “hello,” even though you’re not saying the full word “annyeonghaseyo”

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

If you let me use your kitchen, I can cook some delicious pasta for you👩🏻‍🍳
