Hi!! :D
I'm a cellist/grad student at the Colburn Conservatory of Music in Downtown Los Angeles, California!

I grew up in Korea until I was 13, moved to Fort Sill/Lawton, Oklahoma where I lived for 3 years, then Lubbock Texas for two, and moved to Los Angles, California in 2011 for my undergraduate studies in cello performance, and ended up staying longer for grad studies.

Having parents who loved to travel, I've been to 3 continents outside of Korea until I reached the age of 13, Australia, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
After coming to the US, my parents (particularly my dad) traveled all over the US (plus Canada and Mexico), leaving Alaska as their last state to accomplish.
Huge thanks to my parents, I've traveled with them too, but now that I've reached the age that I can take care of my self and want to "see the world" and meet people, I want to sightsee and live among the people in cities around the world that I dream to see one day.

Though I've traveled so much more than other have, I know that I have so much to catch up to the others. I also acknowledge there are other dream achievers and chasers like me. So, let's hang out! Maybe I will whip my cello and we will jam together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of it!
The thing that I struggle the most with while traveling is finding the place that is affordable for me, a poor student!!
