Hello! I am Bomi Kwon, 20 years old who loves to travel all around the world. I have a Korean Nationality, but I was born in Saitama, Japan. Lived in Japan for 9 years, Korea for 8 years, and English Speaking countries for at least 3 years. I got raised in several regions such as California / Colorado / North Carolina (US), Vancouver (Canada), and Auckland (NZ). I love people, so I always chat with my friends friendly and frankly, discuss the social issues or emotions in a quite deep and honest ways. By the way, I am good at teaching and sharing Korean, Japanese, American not only the languages but also its cultures, how the society works, the norms etc, so if you are interested in hearing those areas, you should hang out with me! I work for LIVESTRONG Foundation in Japan and I am a Founder of LIVESTRONG for KOREA. I hope if you want to know, support the cancer survivorship, I can tell you whole bunch of stories. My friends and I established a company called QoLi, to promote the cancer awareness and directly help cancer patients to manage their side effects via our apps. Maybe we can talk about the issues like entrepreneurship, medical communication, science and tech, programming, etc. Thanks for reading my profile :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to share my somehow 'funky-fresh-crazy' experiences with people around the world. I want to motivate the people who think their life is way too boring, nothing new, and who lost a desire to pursue their own happiness. People can feel or be happy when they have a condition to follow their heart. I want to let people know that there is a myriad of ways of living life in a fun way! For example, If I go out and meet new people, explore myself into the new environment that I haven't been before, I learn something new about its culture and society. That makes my life better each time I experience another thing. I believe I have an enough strength to make their hearts move and let them to an action what they wanted to do so long.
