My name is Jung Jin but you can call me JJ. I am really new to travelling and need all the help I can get.

I grew up until 6 in South Korea and then moved to the UK where I lived with a host family and attended school for 15 years. I then moved to the USA where I was attending , and will return soon, college.

I just finished national military service serving as a translator in the United Nations Mission in South Sudan and now want to travel through East Asia to make new friends :D

I would say that since I've lived in a variety of settings (host family, boarding school, university, army etc) I am fairly good at getting along with people and sleeping just about anyway.

I would love to meet you and share a meal together - it's on me! - even if you cannot host me.

Love to hear from you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
