About Me

I know how to respect hosts, I don't take for granted that you trusted me to stay at your place. I don't rummage the refrigerator to eat all your food. If and when you provide me with meals, I do the dishes. I really try to make the most of the experience and leave the best memories behind because it's an experience both ways.

I’m a student that’s been taking any opportunity to travel - participating in international debate tournaments, joining extra curriculars to take me abroad and going on exchange programs. I’ve been at it since coming into university and as a result - I’ve traveled every vacation I got, sometimes even skipping classes to go. Traveling for me is learning about the world - seeing how people live and bringing back that wisdom into my daily life. I’ve been recommended a trial wwoof lifestyle by and I’m considering it - but as of now - I’m just searching for people to meet on my next trip to DC and NY. I'm more of a listener than an active talker - but I hold my end of a conversation. I don't enjoy hard partying.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m a bit of an introvert at times but I love meeting new inspiring people., here to make conversations to learn from and give to and to make memorable experiences with great people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went snowboarding in Switzerland, it was my lifelong dream ever since I was a kid. While I was there I also walked a four hour snow track without the proper gear and threw myself on the worlds longest sled route without understanding how to steer, or even break on a sled.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook some Korean food and am willing to buy groceries and drinks if needed.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am willing to help with groceries and I can cancel plans and hang out with you all day or leave you alone and not bother you if that's what you need. I can go for a few drinks at night or go hiking.
Recommend some great - movies, songs. Have good conversation, tea and light drinks are something I can do
Insight on Korea, anecdotes of my stories.
