I am a young Korean-American traveler from North Carolina. I love spontaneity, new experiences, exploring, playing music and learning about the fascinating world around me. I am an optimist and life is bizarre.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To contribute/benefit to a symbiotic community of human beings! I believe we grow so much from expanding our community, gaining new experiences and understanding about life on this fascinating planet we call home. I am on this website to meet you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just got done riding my bicycle from Raleigh, NC to New Orleans, Louisiana, a trip of over 1,000 miles. It was very sweaty but also one of the most incredibly rewarding and cathartic experiences of my life! Meeting all of the kind people along the way who shared with us the goodness in their hearts made it worth it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have taught basket weaving, wood joinery and kimchi making lessons. I have a bit of energy healing, yoga, and meditative exercises to share. I would love to learn about culture, folklore and foraging!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Funny stories, and my cooking skills! If you have instruments, I love to play, but unfortunately I am not currently traveling with any instruments. I also love lending a helping hand and am proficient in most "handyman" tasks. Overall I believe I can lend a very positive attitude and an uplifting energy to anyone who feels stagnation or dissatisfaction in their lives.
