Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on a round-the-world trip. I really enjoy to 'live' a city like a local, not just a mere trip experience. For this, I joined couchsurfing. Until now it has been great. I like to question all about how locals live. This is how I make my own story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Writing travel-log online. I'm trying to inspire people with my word. I'll publish a book after ending the trip.

Taking a 10 days trip in Central Northern Mongolia. Ride a horse and a camel, camp in just middle of nowhere, and swim in super clear lake(you even can drink the water). I've had special experiences which I cannot have in another countries.

Making it to 4,600m altitude without any oxygen can in Yading mountain of Yunnan, China. Tourists usually use oxygen can, but I made it only by myself.

Encountering a huge rain-storm in middle of Thar desert in India. I survived it all through the night.

Getting SCUBA Diving license and Free Diving license in Dahab, Egypt. Discovered the beauty of Red Sea.

Exploring Jerusalem and Palestine, the center of conflict in Middle East.

STILL on my round-the-world trip. It has been 9 months since I left home, and still 10 more months to go. Not having a home sometimes makes me lonely, but I'm enjoying it :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a food lover, not just to enjoy it but to explore the world of culinary art. So I read lots of books and watched food documentary to deepen my understanding. As a result, I have a basic cooking license in Korea. We can cook together for beautiful dinner. If you like to teach or share mystery of your own local food, I would be a humble guest.

Fluent Korean and English, so could teach you some.

I also could share the stories of my round-the-world travel. It doesn't end yet, but still there has been a number of stories LOL.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I said above, I could make you a meal(not used to foreign spices and sauces, but I'll try). Also we could share our interests and life-time stories.
