안녕하세요, 저는 말싸예요~ 반가워요 ^^

I have been living and teaching English in Seoul for about 2 years now at a university in the heart of the city. I've been around the city enough to show visitors some of the best places to eat and drink and fluent enough in Korean to not get us lost. I'm good at reading maps, too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people from different countries and cultures, sharing a meal, and learning about anything and everything. I plan on backpacking around Asia in the near future so I'd love to also make friends in those countries as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Korea at age 23 to teach full-time at a university and having an actual career like an adult. I must say that I think I'm successfully adulting. Oh, and saving my friend's life in Croatia when she attempted to cartwheel on the marble floor and landed on her head (I put pressure on her head to stop the bleeding and yelled for help, pretty helpful right?)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, Indonesian, and some Korean. I can also sing and play guitar. My proudest talent is telling some awesome Konglish jokes (that you can find easily on the Internet).

Countries I’ve Visited
