LAST MISSION:

I (was) volunteering for a conference happening in Dolce Hayes Mansion, San Jose (Oct 23-27), and so I am looking for a host! I will be arriving on the 19th and plan to stay in SJ until the end of the month before taking a bus to LA.

(I ended up sleeping under a huge tree at a park)

I will be devoting myself to the conference during the week of the conference but I would love to make time for us to spend time together- let's make it happen.

I will bring my own sleeping bag and bivy to be fully prepared to sleep anywhere (eg. your backyard!).

Burning Man (9/2016)

I have made another last minute decision to attend Burning Man in Nevada this year. I feel very fortunate to have a friend who is a long time member of the community who introduced me to great people and opportunities. This is my first time attending and have gained an early entry pass for Wednesday the 24th.

I will be looking for a place to stay from this Sunday (21st) to Wednesday (24th). Although this is my 3rd time visiting San Francisco, I'm still very new to the city. I'm very open to sharing our experiences of life and living in SF area. That would be cool! Speaking of cool, I find San Francisco's wind so cool. It's quite warm in Toronto at this time.

If you can host me for even just one night. I would love to hear from you :)

My recent story that took me to Europe:

In 2013 I reached out to the organizer of a conference called LeWeb with feedback and expressing interest in photographing his event. Here I am in 2016, I have kept the promise to myself and Loïc, and shot his new initiative called Leade.rs for their first big conference and launch on May 13th in Paris. (my first time in europeeee)

I've left Paris on the 16th for Tours, Bordeaux, La Teste-de-Buch, Montpellier, Antibes, Eze, Nice using Blablacar (fantastique!). It was a super interesting journey. Although I had to sleep at a parking lot inside of a tent and another time in a park, the people I got to meet and places they took me to made it all part of an awesomely adventurous package.

ABOUT ME

I'm identified as a Korean Canadian from Toronto Canada. Born and raised in Seoul, grew up in the countryside (east-coast province called Nova Scotia), and moved to the big city (Toronto) for post secondary education where I majored in business with focus on IT, worked at IBM providing technical support, switched major to sociology, then chose photography as my tool for exploration and pursuits.

I'm always interested in learning to see and do more positive things with my time with hopes of contributing to human experience. All things related to people and change, and events where people come together to share and learn- I am fond of.

PHILOSOPHY

our experience is the most valuable gift.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I became a host when I was living with Emily and Dianna in a 3bdrm apartment. I'd always be willing and happy to find a space where you can make yourself at home. Write me to find out availability!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I found out about couch surfing through one of my roommates. She told me that a couch surfer will be staying with us for a few days and it was a super great, new and positive experience.
