ABOUT ME

Greetings fellow travelers! I'm an international student from South Korea studying at the University of Texas at Austin. I consider myself somewhat a global explorer, having lived in the Philippines and UAE under expat parents. I have a global perspective in life and i'm always curious what's going on around the world.

I've served in the South Korean army for 2 years and lived in a student co-op in Austin for 2 years. Co-operative living arrangement is not new to me and I know what it means to be a respectful person.

Other things that are special about me is my passion for music and culture in general. Counter-culture and bohemian lifestyles have fascinated me. But more than that, I just believe in having a good life - good food, good music and quality time with awesome people.

I'm a young intellectual trying to find my own niche in the world. So far I have interest in academia, technology, sustainability, urban life, communal living.

PHILOSOPHY

to enjoy all the fine things in life - food, music, film, friends, travel, family

to make the world livable for everyone

to fight social injustice

to question authority

to have a good laugh

----------------------
all of the above was written when I was living my carefree days in Austin TX.
here in Montreal, at age 28, i'm not so idealistic. more nihilistic and hedonistic.
