About Me

Hi
I live in Seoul, Korea
and I'm a student of Sook Myung Women University.
My major is Fineart, detaily put Oriental painting.
Not only am I interested in fineart,
I'm also interested in going abroad, meeting stranger, talking with people
and learning English.
I'm taking 1.5year off school and I wanted to get new exciting experience.
So I've been trying anything I want to try
and I hope I find what I'm good at and which job is fine for me as soon as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like going on a trip
and the thing is that one of my dream is becoming a traveller
who goes on a trip, takes a picture or draws a picture and writes what I feel.
So I usually go on a trip every vacation by myself.
and this is my frist trip for Europe.
Im recommended couchsurfing from one of myfriend.
and she said It's a really nice program and she's sure I'll like it.
So I want to try this program and I want to meet new people and
get along with them by going around together and talking a lot.

Interests

I wanted to be fluent in English and I've been learning English for the last year going to academy in korea.
However when I met someone who came from English spoken country,
I realized that I had to get along with forigner. I've gotten along with only korean who can speak English.
So I think that's the reason my English didn't get better.
If I want to improve my English, I have to know other culture not only do i know how to speak English
That's why I've decided to go around Europe, I like travel though.
So the thing is that I'm little afraid to go Europe by myself.
but also I think this is the best chance I can improve my English.
so I really want to meet nice people talking about our cultures,
letting me know how they live
then learning English spending time with people who live in the country.
I think as for speaking English or launguage, knowing their culture is a lot more important than just knowing grammer.
I really want to be a person who can speak English fluently like native
which can speak something in proper situation.
my purpose for this trip is living with someone who lives in Europe even only 1day, and get along with forigner. That I can learn their culture and how they live then I believe that my English will get much natural.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like K-pop
as you know, there are a lot of singers in korea.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The thing is that I couldn't speak any English just 1year ago.
And I really wanted to learn English that I can communicate with
people from other country.
So I've been studying hard for the last 1year and my English
is gettint better and better.
but what I realized is that knowing other culture is more important
than just learning English. So I want to go on a trip and see many people
who can speak English in person and share our thinking.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I was saying , My major is Oriental painting.
So I think I'll be able to introduce korean art,
and I'm sure you'll love it.
you can expect how beautiful korean art is
and I think It's very cute.
I've been to canada 8years ago, at that time I brought
things related korean art to give my host
and they were really really happy with it.
