ABOUT ME
Hello! I am now living in Montevideo, Uruguay and i am from Korea. My major is spanish language and literature so i started learning spanish. I've been in Spain in 2012 and it was my first experience of living in other country. Since then, i am really into latin culture. There are many different things between latin culture and that of korea. So i feel like living new life when i live outside of my country , which i really like. Also, i can teach many asian things to my latin friends and i really love it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Some of my uruguayan friends have been doing couchsurfing so through them i got to know. When they hosted some people in Montevideo, i could also explain something that i know about Montevideo and Uruguay to them. It really interests me to explain what i know about this city to foreigners.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When a american girl and a england boy came to Montevideo, we could interchange the language that interests each other. I was in need of learning english and they were in spanish. So we had conversation exchanging each language.
Interests
I usually like knowing different culture, especially latin culture. Since i've learned spanish, i am really in to learn latin culture and have latin friends. For that, i usually cook korean food for my friends because we can interchange our culture and know better each other by experiencing their own thing.
