Hiya, I'm Dongjin Lee ( Just call me, Jin!!!) from South Korea. Beginning of 2016, I moved to Newcastle upon tyne, United Kingdom as an exchange student. I enjoy eating, cooking, traveling, and talking with people. and love to sharing cultures, thoughts and ideas with many people! I am easy-going, open-minded and optimistic person.

Most of my life, I have lived in South Korea except 6 months in Philippines, 2 months in Turkey, and now in United Kingdom. I have been to Hong Kong (3 times), Macao, Singapore just for travelling. As I love traveling, I'd like to travel all over the world!!
I would like to hanging out with local friends to the places where tourist usually doesn't know. Sometimes I drink beers and alcohol, but not often. I'm really weak at drinking just half of the pint of beer would be enough for me.

PHILOSOPHY

- Now or Never
- Pain is inevitable, but Suffering is optional
