CURRENT MISSION

to live and laugh

ABOUT ME

I was born in South Korea, moved to New York when I was 8, and now studying abroad in Madrid as an NYU student!! I'm fascinated by people and cultures, and living in NYC has been a giant preview of what is really out there. I am so excited to be in Madrid!

I'm a generally happy go lucky person, and I don't usually let things bother me. I love comparing cultures and love seeing the differences that I read about in books. That is why I love the hospitality and tourism industry; its something very universal if you think about it, like the sport of soccer, or what people think about George Bush.

PHILOSOPHY

...well, why not?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking for people who can teach me a thing or two about the neighborhood, for people who can share a good laugh and for people who are willing to participate in an interesting convo. I am unable to host, but I do have extensive knowledge on some of the neighborhoods in New York City :)

Interests

swimming, eating everything in sight, wandering and exploring without direction (sometimes), hiking, running, chilling with friends, writing useless things into my sketchbook, doodling in class, daydreaming, hunting squirrels.
