Hello, I'm Annette - Korean descent, born in America, therapist in training, content writer, and a voracious reader.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

meet cool people

Interests

I love to exercise and switch it up with yoga, HIIT, mat pilates, running, walking, and skipping rope

I love food and cooking and baking anything and everything

I try to create more than I consume, so i like to express my creativity through writing and making/editing videos

Also into meditation, and exploration and deeper understanding of the world and myself. I like to question conditioning and existing structures and why i do the things i do.

But, i'm also not too serious right now and currently enjoying a phase of indulgence following a phase of discipline, asceticism, and sobriety.

I love stand up comedy, cocktail bars, going for long bike rides around the city, exploring cities and nature, chilling at home, psychedelics, live music, indie/foreign/black and white classic films like anything in the Criterion Collection lmao. I have a subscription to Kanopy so we can watch some amazing movies nobody’s ever heard of that make u wonder wtf did i just watch.

Music, Movies, and Books

instead of "favorite" things i have phases of what's on deck.

fave music is techno, dream pop, indie rock

last good movie i saw was In the Mood for Love

books-wise, i'm currently reading Different . I love Purity by Jonathan Franzen, One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and The Prophet by Khalil Gibran has me crying with his description of love.

these days i read about love and relationships, and spirituality
