About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Like attracts the like!

ABOUT ME

I am very positive person who try to live the present.

Some people might think studying linguistics is boring, but I've always pursued new experience because there is only one chance to enjoy them in my life. Of course, I love to study my fields. That's why I love to travel as much as I can, and to learn about various culture which is deeply related to languages.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life for my achieve.
I live my life for happiness with my poeple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Friend of mine let me know this site and
I really appreciate it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done couchsurfing in San francisco and Seattel.
Both hosts were really nice to me and my friend.
We could enjoy local life there, and they really cared about us.
So I am so positive to couchsurfing!

Interests

I'm interested in rock climbing these days. Although I'm still afraid on top of the wall (or real rock), I like feelings that I'm concentrating on just one thing at the moment. Besides, I'm learning swimming and rocket ball.
Of course, I'd love to go somewhere I've never been, or to eat something new. Recently, I'm learning how to cook western foods such as pasta, pizza, roast beef and etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like any kinds of books,Movies,or Music if it touches my mind.
Before judging them, I just try them.
Usually, I like books about Korean history though.
and some of my favorite books are 'One hundred years of solitude',and 'The unbearable lightness of Being'.
When it come to music, I like Jazz,R&B and Hiphop!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen Grand Canyon and Brice Canyon, and those huge canyons cannot be found in my country..
Actually, in South Korea, there is really nice mountain, so called Mt. Hanla which is located in Jeju island. I've been almost top of the mountain, I could enjoy great view.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to share other's view about how to live the life that is only one for us. By meeting various kinds of people, I could learn somewhat different from me in terms of way of living, thinking or even saying.
I do think we all have something to be taught by others. Especially, for me, it is my second time to live in state, so I want to get to know more about other cultures, and those who live in that culture.
