My profile filled up quite long time ago but I think I don’t change much. I love nature, especially mountain. Hiking is one of my passion, I also like water activities, such as diving.

CURRENT MISSION

There is nowhere to go except into myself.

ABOUT ME

LOVE TO TRAVEL SO MUCH AND LOVE TO MEET PEOPLE SO MUCH :)

I think I have enough references from the people who was my host, I host, and meet during the travel. So if you want to know what kind of person I am, you can read some references:)

Well, to descirbe myself is always kinda difficult thing, but I'm sure I'm a girl pulled w/ positive energy, open-minded and out-going person.

I studied Cultural Anthropology and English Linguistics, and I do love what I studied since I am really into all the different culture of the world and language. I also get certification for teaching Korean as a foreign language after college, so if you ever have an interest of Korean language and culture, yes, I am the person who can help you for sure:) Cooking is one of my passion. lots of my dishes are based on Asian style, but I'd love to combine various cooking style.

I just enjoy going around the world. to me, there is nothing have to do, have to see, or have to eat at specific place. all I want is just feel the place and culture, and learn about myself and life through the people. that's the only goal of my travel! just give myself into depended situation, wanna feel as much as possible through possibility that is open to me. People who I can meet on my travel are THE BEST experience to me. and it's also same when I'm in my country. meeting people who have the inner beauty and love travel, the world, and the real life which can never compare to material life is always make me know something like I have knew nothing before. in this reason, I wanna meet you, wanna know you, and wanna learn from you:)

PHILOSOPHY

routine like travel, travel like routine:

whenever I stay at one place pretty long during my travel, I just feel it's like normal life in my country. I like this feeling so much, wanna live routine w. this kind of feeling in my life place. really wanna be LIFE TRAVELLER :)
