About Me

Hi my name is Baik- Song, Jong-MI but you can call me SONG-MI(송미, 宋美)。

안녕하세요~반갑습니다~
大家好, 认识你们很高兴。はじめまして。
Hi, nice to meet you, Hola, mucho gusto:)

I'm a person who loves learning about different/ new cultures, languages, histories...and this interest has made me keep traveling so far:)

Whenever I learn and experience things that I've never known, my heart beats and I feel alive. That's why I travel:)

I also appreciate meeting good and interesting people, and interacting with them whenever it's allowed. I'm a fun-loving, friendly, open-minded person when it comes to my personality:)

Hope we share a beautiful friendship thru this amazing app♡

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I made a year long trip from Feb. 2015 to Mar 2016. During the time, I got to know about CS and couchsurfed a few times. I met such good local friends, experienced their culture better, staying at their houses and interacting with them. My 4 time couchsurfing experience was all great. I'm still so thankful to them and we've become friends ever since. Now finally I'm back home and kinda nestling down here so, I can also open my place to travellers:)

Interests

Learning new things about different cultures, people, art, music, religions, history, languages...etc. I got to know very clear about myself that I feel alive learning new things about the unknown, while I was traveling in 2015. That's why I keep traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

400 day backpacking in 2015 :)

Teach, Learn, Share

If you never try, you'll never know.
If you never know, you'll never try.

Traveling expands our horrizon.
Knowledge expands our horrizon.

Do what your heart tells you to do.

Be thankful at all circumstances.

Ask, seek and knock, the door will be opened.

Not only inner beauty but also make an effort for your outer beauty, pursue the balance of both

I can buy you a nice dinner as a token of appreciation for hosting me or I will cook some yummy Korean foods, sure at my expense:)
