CURRENT MISSION

Finish my plate, and go back for seconds.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently a teacher in Daejeon, South Korea. I love meeting new people, and getting to know them. I have a passion of traveling, and actually getting in touch with different cultures rather than simply pass through them.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy about people can be summed up in 4 words. I like good people. I always try to see things with an open mind, without preconceptions.
