Hi, my name's Christine~ Born in Korea, but moved to the US when I was 7, I grew up in LA California. Currently, I'm an English professor at a Korean university & an English teacher at a private academy. I studied English Lit for my BA and International Relations for my MA.

Philosophy: I believe that life is short and that we should live our lives to the fullest. That means, doing our best in whatever we're doing. Also, have no regrets. There's a saying, "yesterday is history, tomorrow's a mystery, but today is a gift, and that's why it's called the present." Life has no guarantees, so live life~ Love too, and laugh a lot. :)

I'm really open-minded, easy-going, and friendly. Love meeting new people and learning about different cultures and languages. I also like to travel and try new things.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I think it's a great learning, accommodating, and sharing experience. A nice way to meet new people and learn about each other's stories, experiences.
