Hi! I'm an student from Yonsei university, South Korea, studying design and business. I went to UC San Diego, US as an exchange student and I studied user experience and media(video) there. I'm very social, active, and merry and I'm always down to meeting new friends & talking 'bout our lives. My favorite quote : Siate allegri come il sol, indomabili come il mare.(be as merry as the sun, as indomitable as the sea)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Frankly the first reason should be 'financial'. As a student, living expenses are quite unaffordable and I have to do part-time jobs...BUT I still wanna TRAVEL! I don't want to give up traveling cuz of financial reasons.
And the emotional reason for CouchSurfing : meeting new people, learning new culture, sharing happiness! = what more do I need?

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music. I'm in a student band in my home univ. as a drummer, and I also have been in a student hiphop club for a while. I like listening to Korean indie bands, Brit Pop and some other rock music/pop songs. (specifically Coldplay haha) I jammed with my couchsurfing host when I was in Annecy, France. The best movie I've seen recently is La La Land and I love animations from Disney & Ghibli, and M arvel. Disney movies have always been my favorite movie, story, artwork and music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I like traveling and sometimes I dare to travel alone, I survived a day in Mexico without any knowledge for Spanish except for "Hola". That day I met so many kind and lovely people, including Alexandro who guided me to a metro station even though he couldn't say a single English word and I couldn't say any Spanish. We became good friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been studying and teaching Adobe softwares(Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Lightroom and InDesign), so I can help you with those:) Need a one hour course of improving ur travel pic, making a neat profile picture, or make a video for ur family? I could be ur teacherXD
