Hi. My name is Yuyeon Kim. You can also call me Kim as well :)
I was born and grew up in Jeju Island which is the largest island in South Korea before entering my University in Seoul. I study chemical engineering in Sogang University. Now I'm in Umea, sweden as an exchange student!
I can speak korean of course and also can speak english. I learned japanese when I was in high school, but can speak just basic things like こんにちは. I'm studying swedish too, but jag talar pytte lite svenska. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I told one of my friend that I'm gonna travel soon and she recommend Couchsurfing to me. She said that it was such a good experience in her life. In addition, I learned how interesting sharing our culture is while I've met so many people in here as an exchange student. I think this can be a great opportunity to learn new culture more than other things!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is K-pop. I love SHINee, f(x) and Red Velvet. I also like other K-pop stars like Bigbang, GOT7, SNSD, Wonder girls.. etc.
I also like Damien Rice and Ellie Goulding but I don't know much about them.
For the movies and books, in fact, I usually watch and read korean things. :(

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Exchange Student Experience Right Now!!
It is fantastic, I can meet many people and can meet diverse cultures in here!
I like to listen different point of views for the same thing. Also, I realized about myself more than before ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some korean language and korean culture. I want to learn about your own culture, everything is okay including tiny things. I like to share traditional foods most :D.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If there is a space in my bag, I can make you guys some korean food or bring some korean tea. If you are interested in my country, I can let you know about our country and show some pictures that I took while I traveling in Korea. If you want, I can bring some swedish sweets, but there might be some finnish sweets because it's famous in Sweden.
