Hi! I am a Korean-American pianist from Ann Arbor, US. I was born and raised in Seoul until I was 13, then my family and I moved to the US. I am a classical music pianist so I perform and teach wherever the opportunity brings me to. In 2018, I moved to Germany to continue my study and to be able to travel within Europe more easily. Thanks to my background of living on different cotinents of the world, I am very easy to talk to no matter where you are from. I can be that last person to leave the party but I also can be that person who likes to just stay in her bed and read on weekend nights.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been very lucky in my life to have met lots of people from different parts of the world and to travel with them in their own countries. Every travel with my friends of the country I visit has been an amazing experience that I would have never planned by myself. I believe that the travel becomes a whole new level when you meet someone local, so I really like meeting a local who can help me get to know the new place.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a fast learner of the language of the country I am visiting. I love to eat, so I learn the number and basic greetings no problem.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share you the stories of my travel- Asia, North/South/Central America, and Europe. I also like to share the stories of my own countries- both South Korea and the United States. If you have a piano at home, I will gladly have a live evening concert at your place.
