Hello, This is Jehyeon Park just call me Jay. I'm a local guy in Gwangju who really love my region(Jeolla province).

I was physical therapiest before. I was happy that i could help patients who have problems by brain injuries. But somehow I wanted to discover the world and meet new people.
So I left hospital and started travelling around the world for 2.5 years.

I enjoy backpacking, hitchhiking, camping with low budget. And it gave me more chances to meet local people. It was unforgettable and amazing time.

I'm active, open-minded, friendly. Especially positive minded person! Many foreign friends called me Coreano loco omg...!

Couchsurfing inspired, gave me lots of good experiences, memories. It changed me a lot. I still would love to meet and hang out with new people who wanna know more deeply about local culture, people in Korea and Jeolla province.

If you need any help, let me know!

Ps. I just wanna say about my YouTube channel, Because i restarted making V-log videos with guests by couchsurfing who wanna join these days. So if you stay on weekend and we explore the city together, sometimes i wanna make videos to show about this city and couchsurfing. If you join me to explore together with filming, it would be more appreciated and welcome.
But I'm not that serious with this, so if you don't want, you don't need to join for sure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When i was in Peru, I got a nature disaster. Because of heavy rain after long time, All of road and bridges is broken. So i couldn't move anywhere and had to stay in the city.

I tried to cross the river and escape many times with various way. But It was really hard.

Luckily i met a really good local guy and he helped me to stay his house.
After 1 week, Peru government try to escape especially foreigners. I could escape the northern Peru by military plane. It was the hardest time for me but unforgettable memory.
