I'm Chamin from south Korea.
I was born in Seoul and live in Seoul.

I'm working as a graphic designer for 5years, mostly doing things related to branding, packaging, and character design.

Since my life was just about sitting on a chair watching computer screen for hours and hours, struggling to meet the super short deadline, letting my arms and legs paralyzed, I decided to stop living like this. Instead, I'm trying to bring something new, fun, energetic and joyful into my life. Traveling is one of them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS makes it possible to meet awesome people around the world who are very open-minded and enthusiastic. They could be my friends, my teachers and inspirations at the same time. Love it!

Interests

1. Traveling
I just can't stop traveling somewhere.
It makes me brave, open-minded and feel that I'm someone else.

2. All types of art, which can wake up my soul.
I think having aesthetic pleasure at every moment is so essential.
Because I believe that might be the truth of life!!

3. etc.
All animals, Dogs, Carl Sagan (astronomer), personal grooming, eating exotic foods.
