I am South Korean but I moved to the Philippines when I was 13 and finished my high school and university in Manila. That is why I can speak fluent English and intermediate Tagalog (Filipino).
After my studies, I worked as an intern for one of the senators in the Philippines as an back up researcher for 3 months and worked for Morgan Stanely Capital Investment as an company analyst. I did sustainable development researches of different companies all around the world for 10 months.
I decided to become an au pair in Europe since I realized that I need to widen my perspective by seeing bigger world and have time to reflect in my life.
Apparently, I got a lovely Dutch family and I am learning a lot about Netherlands.
I am still discovering Netherlands and doing my best to go out explore new cities and countries during my free weekends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that couchsurfing is the best way to meet new people by sharing travel stories as each person have different paths and experiences when they travel. Also, its the best way toengage into the local culture and know the local "way".

Interests

I love sports as I was formerly a table tennis varsity player during my unviersity.
I am into running, hiking and scuba diving. I am biking a lot in Netherlands too :D
I love creative artworks too like making accessories, cross-stitch or any other hand-made works.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Missing a flight by misreading my ticket as day after:|
Not online checking in to Ryanair and pay my expensive lesson at the airport
Scuva diving while I was still hangover ( almost died but survived)
Swimming with whalesharks.
Riding a ballon in Capaddocia, Turkey which has breathtaking views in your life
All these mistakes, I've learned so much what not to do and to do next time :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing my life stories and also listening to life stories of other people on what they are interested, what they are doing and what are the impressions of South Korea.
