Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have joined Couchsurfing in 2014 when I was an university student and London was the first city that I have done Couchsurfing then Edinburg and Venice. Unfortunately, I had to change my account with a new email address, I had to make a new account... :(
Before, I was very scared to travel by myself and one of my friends introduced me Couchsurfing that I can meet really nice friends while traveling. I overcame fear to travel alone while meeting up nice hosts and I keep in touch with them on Facebook. I truly believe that being friends and staying with locals bring me much better memories of travel than staying in hostels and hotels.

Interests

I truly love traveling. For me, traveling new places is more attractive than buying good stuff.
I like cooking although sometimes I feel it is too much to do after work. However, I love to cook healthy and delicious recipes especially when I cook with family and friends.

What I Can Share with Hosts

One interesting question I heard from people while I was traveling sometimes was if it is actually safe to live in South Korea when North Korea is always trying to bring big tensions in international societies.
I can share my experiences living in South Korea if you are curious :p and I am pretty much open to any kind of topic that you want me to share. :)
