About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To hear, smell, touch, taste, and see the Americas

ABOUT ME

I'll keep this simple:

1) I'm a 27-year-old Korean American who is trying to make his way back to the States from Buenos Aires through land or sea.

2) Led Zeppelin is my god.

3) I love nature and animals.

4) I love to eat, drink, and laugh.

5) I treat people on one very simple philosophy: "You be good to me, I be good to you."

I'm just a young dude exploring the world. Want to know more? Ask me, and I'll tell you more than you ever wanted to know.

PHILOSOPHY

Try everything twice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have unintentionally hosted, just recently donated, and can't wait to surf.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm brand new to couchsurfing. I have hosted unintentionally before just because my roommate was a couchsurfer. I got to meet this crazy Israeli girl who stayed with us for a few days. Can't wait to see what other characters I'm gonna meet.

p.s. I love anything that has to do with the ocean.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing/satisfying/proud/life-changing experience I've had was to drive around United States on vegetable oil. I bought a diesel truck and converted it to run on veg oil and left my previous routinal life behind and hit the road to live a day-to-day life of travelling. A huge part of who I am today is due to that trip. This is just a short PR video my buddy put together for his school. Check it out:

Teach, Learn, Share

I cook using whatever is in the fridge, build, convert cars to run on vegetable oil, play the drums, farm organic vegetables, can make 50 drinks under 7 minutes, and play the frisbee for hours, and am great at being mediocre in several sports.

I want to learn how to rock climb, how to build an engine, how to cook thai food, how to sail, how to play the guitar and the piano, how to survive in an Amazonian jungle....the list just goes on.
