I'm Ted Kim(in Korean, Taehyuk Kim) from Seoul, south Korea. I am aged 23.
I like telling my stories and also listening to other's stories and it's easy to be familiar with me. Since I was in the army for 2 years for mandatory service from 2011, it makes me more responsible to myself and others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The reason I'm on couchsurfing is that I want to share my culture, traits and knowledge. Also, want to learn your culture, traits and thoughts. The world is only worth when it is shared with other people. Telling their stories, life and how they've been doing for their living are the most important things to make the world brighter and worth. This is my motto I totally convinced of.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having a trip alone. When I was young, my parents treated me like a flower in a greenhouse. I was so protected from hurts and hardship which have restricted me a lot from growing independently. One day, I told my parents that I decided to go on a trip by alone without any help. They were so worried about me that I can't easiliy make it. Actually, I can't. It was really difficult for me to live in a strange, awkward and not familiar situations and cultures. However, I knew that it grows me. The difficulty changes to the pain and it changes again to my base nourishment. That's why still now I am traveling around the world in order to strengthen myself.

Teach, Learn, Share
