"Sharing tea with a fascinating stranger is one of life's true delights" - Uncle Iroh

Exploring living in Korea after growing up in the Netherlands as being half Dutch and half Korean. Currently I am writing a book about this experience.
I love to learn about anything, culture, sciences, nature, animals, and humans.

I am Marrit / Kim / 여름 Yoreum, and I am addicted to bubble tea. Drink bubble tea with me and we will already be best friends.

Currently reading: The Culture Map - Erin Meyer
I think an essential for every CS!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet awesome people around the world!
