About Me
ABOUT ME
Been couchsurfing for 12 years now. Get sucked into adult life - binge surf - then get sucked in again to pay the bills - then binge again to spend it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been a surfer all along.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first CS started as a high school graduate. Crashed at an awesome Erasmus student´s house in Madrid and with an adorable family in Beijing. I´ve continued to surf during my stay in Spain, travelling to Lisbon, Rome, Cordoba, and Mexico City. I've also been going to meetings and hanging out with fellow CSers in Seoul, Sevilla, and Moscow.
Interests
Some of my closest friends I have met through Couchsurfing. Really an amazing network and experience. Also love the exposure to new culture, food and drinks, learning language.
I care about social causes.
Hobby is jogging, basketball, tennis, fostering animals
I LOVE samba.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Swam with the wild dolphins in the Indian ocean.
Crossing a river valley on a mere rope in Nu Jiang, Tibe, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQusBAhL-Gs) and then getting stuck in the middle and thinking that I'll die, and then miraculously surviving.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning languages. And trying different food.
I love samba & would love to learn some chords
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am a certified great company ;)

If you like dancing, I can show you how a Korean gal can dance to raggaeton! haha
