About Me

I'm a daydreamer and always hoping to be a wanderlust.

I'm from Seoul, the capital of South Korea. Currently I live in North Hertfordshire and work in Cambridge, and this is my first time to live outside of Korea although I have moved a lot in my entire life. I am currently having a gap year to find my next goal and reset the path of my life. Spending time in Europe working, travelling and experiencing has made me see what I have been looking for clearly little by little. During this time, I would also love to meet new people to interact, talking about our dreams, what each of us has seen, and things happening around us and the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the world more widely and get to know others from different cultures.

Interests

Books, movies, music, going for a walk and travelling :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Korean indie folk, rock and pop (welcome to ask!), and many international musicians including Damien Rice, Muse, The Feeling, James Bay, The Swell Season, Ok Go, Muse, etc.

Movies: The Nightmare Before The Christmas, Edword Scissorhands, Finding Neverland, Batman trilogy, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and any movie with an interesting story, my favorite actor or my favorite director

Books: Western classics such as Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre, modern Japanese fiction by Banana Yoshimoto and Haruki Murakami, essays and stories by Mitch Albom, and many more :)
