Overview
About Me
Hello. I am Jihye Choi from Korea. I love travel so much so I have been travelling aroung the world for more than 3 years so far. In Korea, I was an office worker with a company. It was quite boring life and I felt a desire to discover life outside of my own culture, to meet people from a variety of backgrounds and to have new life experience. I am so gald the decision to see the world. I found real happiness from deep inside of myself while traveling. And the meditation also helped me find a real happiness.
What I learned from my travel so far are :
- Where there is a will, there is a way
- God helps those who help themselves
- If we call it Tao, it is not the Tao
- Know yourself
- Just do it
- Everything is gonna be alright
- This, too, shall pass away
- Carpediem
God will help you (I call it God, but it is not the christian God. lt can be called God or energy or tao or nature or whatever you want. Just you name it. ) when you know yourself, trust yourself and just do it if you want to do something. Always remember where there is a will, there is a way and everything is gonna be alright. On the way, you will meet good things and bad things(I would love to say these Yin and Yang). You should understand this too shall pass away. Nothing is permanent. So, enjoy the moment as most as you can. Carpediem!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have been traveling all around the world since Feb. 8th. 2015. I would like to know how people in the world live their life. From their life story, I learn how to live my life happily and more meaningfully. This is the reason why I travel and meet many people from a variety of background all over the world. Through couchsurfing, I can get to know and deeply understand local people and their life. In addition, I would love to share my life story and what I have learned from travel.
