About Me

Korea-born and US-trained sociologist, living near Gyeongbokgung station (경복궁역, 景福宮站/駅). Experienced in interpretation/translation between English and Korean with a bit reading knowledge of Chinese, Japanese, etc. Anyone visiting my neighborhood, Seoul, or anywhere in Korea is welcome to contact me for information, etc, and will be happy to guide you the way you prefer.

My dreams include starting a leisure business of my own, and being able to travel the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While learning about new internet services, a few friends said that CS would be hot, so I joined. I am willing to make many, new friends here!

Interests

Making friends with good people, and seeing the world!

Health, peace of mind, world peace, and fun.

The Beatles, Bossa Nova and a variety of good music.

Films, books, and any other thought-provoking content.
