About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an elementary school English teacher in South Korea and I love meeting new people and making new friends! I'd say I'm kinda quirky a lot of times, but real easy to talk to. I have traveled to a many different countries, but the adventurer in me wants to travel the world! Tell me your stories and I'll be happy to tell you mine. I look forward to meeting you all! ^^

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and hearing their stories. So I believe couchsurfing would allow me to do just that. I also want to show everyone my wonderful new home that is South Korea.

Interests

learning about different countries, their culture, and their languages; all kinds of music, Karaoke, baking, dancing (hip hop, ballroom, bellydance), snowboarding, aerial yoga, and all kinds of games (video or otherwise). I'm a foodie so I basically live to eat. I love exploring new restaurants and trying new food. I'll basically eat anything!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Disney and Marvel anything.
I read a lot of books but a favorite of mine has to be Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. Any books by him I've read.
For movies, Jurassic Park holds a special spot in my heart. Pan's Labyrinth is also just amazing.
For music, I listen to everything. No real preference, it's just whatever I'm feeling the mood to listen to. Or if there is any type of music you want to introduce to me, I would love to listen to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everything I've experienced I feel is amazing.

But I guess for now, it has to be that I moved to 2 countries to live and work on my own.

Teach, Learn, Share

Everything and anything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have traveled to many different countries and experienced so many different things while there that I feel I can share any information I have on any of them and my stories if you are interested. I believe I mainly will be offering my huge gratitude at allowing me to stay with you.
