CURRENT MISSION

I am trying to apply my gifts where they will do the most good for the greatest number of people.

ABOUT ME

Currently living in Hamburg still trying to figure myself out...
Life is an eternal quest about knowing myself.
I have been traveling since I was 15 here and there.
Then I decided to travel around the world as long as I could without any plans.
I quit my job, sold everything, packed and left Korea with one backpack.
I was having the time of my life but I had to come back to Korea after traveling 13 months solo because I nearly died in Thailand.
I nearly died few times before but this one was very serious.
What a life! My life is pretty crazy!
There were plenty of ups and downs, plenty of other crazy bad situations.
But I loved every minute of it.
I wouldn't change a thing.
If everything had gone smoothly, my travels wouldn't have been anywhere near as interesting and fulfilling.
Reflecting back now, with the benefit of hindsight, I'm so glad I took the risk and made a huge step into the unknown.
There are so many things I've learned, so many cool people I've met..so many beautiful places I've been to... I can't thank enough to this world.

PHILOSOPHY

People are inherently good, and there is something to love about every person.
I'd rather die with a million memories than a million dollars. Make memories and enjoy your life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I met so many kind and helpful people during my trip. It's time for me to help others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted many friends who I met during my travles before, but not many experiences on couchsurfing. I am trying to participate as much as i can.

Interests

Being in the moment, movies, art, extream sports, truth,people(particularly those who inspire and instigate adventures) hot yoga,meditating,live music, film festivals. Zombies,surprises,serendipity, adventures, traveling,food, rockclimbing, helping and teaching children. Space, time, origins of things and places and how they all connect. I believe everything is connected somehow and the pattern is out there if you are willing to look at everything as being in connection with everything else.
