Overview
About Me
I grew up in Korea and moved to the US when I was 10. I picked up English pretty quickly and have been living in the States for the last 15 years; it's my current home but I hope that I can find a home anywhere in the world.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My best traveling experience came from couchsurfing in Germany with Ferdinand. He taught me how to live life with curiosity and vigor. I hope to meet more people like Ferdinand and learn from people from different parts of the world!
Interests
I'm a sucker for fashion, art museums, book recommendations, cheap eats around the city, and weekend hikes.

Music, Movies, and Books
Recently, I've been listening to non-stop Anderson .Paak, DEAN and Blood Orange. My taste in music is pretty wide but Beyonce is queen.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Drove through north island of New Zealand alone (Auckland -> Wellington) and traveled NZ by myself for 10 days.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my experience living as a Korean American :) I love to take people around my favorites spots around town- Oakland, SF- and talk about everything from sf startup scenes to Hamilton the musical!
