About Me

Hola, Hello, 안영!
My name is Joe Kim, I was raised in a little town called Guayaquil, Ecuador... where most people usually stop by to go to the famous eccentric beach Montañita.
I love going on traveling adventures, hiking mountain peaks, rock climbing, and camping.
When I'm not outdoors exploring and getting dirty, I'm doing audio work in sound design, recording, and game audio.
I also enjoy making brewing Korean traditional alcohol and pairing it with great Korean food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet other couch surfers, and learn more from their countries and culture, while at the same time I want to show them what South Korea can truly offer besides K-Pop, and Kimchi.
