I love random adventures and I’m generally a pretty weird person with an unhealthy passion for bad jokes, pizza, Korean food and sushi. I also have a natural talent for sleeping and being hungry and I’m currently binge-watching House of Cards, but also a big fan of Prison Break, Dr. Who, Sherlock and The Daily Show.
Besides all those formidable traits, I grew up in Germany with the most wonderful Korean parents and lived in Indiana for an exchange year. The past few months though, I’ve been travelling around Guatemala, Mexico and the US, since I am currently on my gap year before I will start my college journey this August @ Minerva
In the rare instances, when I’m not eating or sleeping, I like to hang out outside, read books, code stuff, learn about Machine learning and Neuroscience, think about politics, play basketball or ask stupid questions

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to be part of a community that is full of people with unique stories. Because I want to meet people from different backgrounds. Because I love the idea of a open doors.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like watching documentaries that make me think about who I am, about my morals, my priorities, about the way the world seemingly works within a utopian and dystopian spectrum. I'm also very much into political and philosophical shows such as "House of cards" and "Black Mirror" and I am a huge fan of Doctor Who!

I love music that makes me dance and sing along. I also enjoy listening to acapela groups.

I love reading and recently started challenging myself to read and review one book a week, so feel free to talk to me about books! The most recent books I read have been Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" and Khaled Hoesseini's "The Kite Runner"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a gap year after high school and solo travelled around Guatemala, Mexico and the US for half a year while learning Spanish, taking online courses and building websites.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach about coding, languages and entrepreneurship!
I got lots of stories to share.
But above all, I really enjoy listening to people and learning from others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some very special travel stories, Korean traditions, philosophical debates and good hugs.

Countries I’ve Lived In
