About Me

Hi ya'll! It's Hayley from Seoul, South Korea!
I'm a university student studying clothing, textiles and art history.
And I'm currently living in Leeuwarden, the northern part of Netherlands.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

More than just accommodations, I want to get inspired and learn more from that culture. I would like to try new things, not only those on the guide tour book but also things that only the local people do! I believe there's always a chance for us to hang out and teach each other new things, Good Things!

I want to broaden my view vertically and horizontally and savor every moment!

Interests

I love traveling around, whether it's a city or nature, and love meeting new people and getting inspired from them. Also love music, animals, dancing, food, fashion, arts, galleries and festivals!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hmm.. hard to pick one.

One of my favorite genre of music these days is definitely EDM! Love Avicii, Zedd, Martin Garrix, Alesso, Kygo, Oliver Heldens, Porter Robinson, Galantis.. I also love international musicians like Beyonce, Rihanna, Ellie Goulding, Jess Glynne, Ed Sheeran, The weekend and so on.. Literally every musicians on Earth! Can't think of them all! Nonetheless to say, love K-pop as well as other music :)

Also I'm a huge fantasy-enthusiast so that I can talk all night long about Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, Game of thrones!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This summer, I visited Honfleur, which is in the nothern part of France.

Like I mentioned above, I love galleries. As usual, I was strolling through the gallery streets and taking photos of the arts that day. Then suddenly, a guy came out from the gallery and asked me if I could help him. So I said OK and came into the gallery with him. He asked me if I could be a model for his new project - he wanted to capture 30 different emotions and facial expressions from 30 different people. He called his photographer right away and they took some photos of me! And they're making the process to make it look like a painting.

It was truly an amazing experience! To be a model of an art work? That's the one you don't experience everyday haha :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can speak English rather fluently but I also like communicating in language of the country I visit. You can teach me basic language of yours so that I can order food, buy things in your language! Moreover, I can teach you some basic Koreans so if there's any chance you visit Korea, you will SURVIVE!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can talk all night long, dance all night long! Love going out both at day & night!

Doesn't matter whether the place is, we can always have fun time!

If there's anything you wonder about Korea, I can tell you as much as I know.

I also can cook some Korean dishes if you'd like to try!
