About Me

@Soon to start a year of backpacking around Africa

Hi, my name is 주기환(korean). Gihwan joo. My english name is Adam and my arabic name is ادم. just call me whatever you want

I would love to meet new people and travel the world.
Learning new things and meeting new people and have amazing, new experiences overall.

I'm a free-spirt, constantly on the search for new experiences and adventures.
Originally from Seoul, and I've been living in Amman(Jordan) around one year.

My life seems to revolve around two main quotes: "Why not?" and "Because I can".
Positively reframe everything: everything is either good, a funny story, or a learning experience.
so that's why i trevel and surf

LIKE travel - how can't i love!
So I've been more than 47 countries, maybe more than 100 cities in the world i've visted.
But there are lots of wonderful place still remaining so that's why i still wander wondering and treveling

had been lived in jordan amman for study arabic around 1 year in 2015. because my major is philasophy and second major arabic -
THE MAD things in the earth

maybe we have a bit of barrier in relation cause our language however(I'm so silent when in English) none of this stop us having fun.and i think that's not absolutely essential.

-Please ignore my response rate; I always reply (unless it's a terrible lazy request)!-

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Gathering with interesting globalize people.

On Couchsurfing - because I love to meet new people, hope to travel the world, and would love to help others on their journeys traveling!

I want to learn about the lives of others around the world and experience as much of life as I can.

I've met some truly amazing people doing this, and I intend to keep doing so!
CS is a truly beautiful thing. It's such an amazing way to meet people, home and away.

Interests

My interests include doing anything.
I'm a relaxed little introvert at heart that loves one on one conversations,and perspective.
Nowadays I'm passionate about writing
Also I'm interested in expatriate stories and information about new places. I mean YOURS

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll always try something new - you can hold me to that (as long as it's not too illegal or immoral).

Learned arabic and philasophy in univ. I share them if you want, I can teach you korean languge

I'm always learning new things! I'm sure there's something that I can share with you example walk for a puppy
