Hi, my name is Kim and I'm a full-time student and a part-time traveller. I guess that combination makes me a frugal solo traveller (beginner). I've been on 3 trips by myself so far and I'm planning to go on longer trips once I'm finished school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've travelled a bit, but I've never made any connections with the people I've met. With couchsurfing, I intend to make and maintain new friendships. I hope to meet people to travel with as well as people to introduce me to their countries/cities. Also, I hope to learn some tips and tricks to travelling solo and travelling in Europe/Asia.
