Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To make life a little more beautiful. I love fashion and beauty. I like to spread my love on those things through my social media. Feel free to follow me on my Instagram [ Chobibunny ].
ABOUT ME
I was born in the USA back in the 80's to two very loving parents who came from very different worlds. My mother was raised in the Carribbean and my father was raised in the United Kingdom but they fell in love, got married and had me. My mother is a fashion designer and my father was a bodybuilder and a personal trainer. I spent most of my childhood, traveling around the world with.
It is my belief that my love of travel stems from them.
I started to be fascinated with Asian studies when I was in High School. I went to elementary school in Beijing on an exchange trip and it was amazing but I forgot most of the Chinese that I had learned, so I made it my mission to learn more about Asia when I was a teenager.
I ended going to a Japanese University and I spent four years in Korea learning Korean and teaching English. My weekends were spent buying clothes and make up and figure skating at Lotte World.
Now I live in Japan where I work 5 days a week and 8 hours a day. It a nice comfortable job but sometimes I miss all the traveling I did when I was younger, so for the past few years, I have travelled around Asia for every vacation.
I like staying with Couchsurfers because they can show me parts of Korea that tourist do not see and I experience real life of everyday people in Korea. I find it much more enjoyable than staying in a Hotel or a guesthouse.
