About Me

Hello, I'm Changmook from Korea.
I want to meet various people and know a lot of thing in this world.
I'm friendly to new people.

Now I am living at Lospalos, East Timor(Timor Leste). Here I'm teaching music to the local elementary school students. This is so amazing because they and I both can grow up while I teach the students who have so different cultural backgrounds.

So, I just want to share my experience and yours too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

2 years ago, when i was traveling Europe, I was depending on a travel book like Lonely Planet. Of course It was good, but I wanted to experience more about local people, nature and culture.
Now, I know Couchsurfing and it is what I'm finding.
Through the Couchsurfing, I want to do special thing while traveling with new friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

[Music]
I love listening to music, especially Eric Clapton, John Mayer, Damien Rice, U2, etc.
I played a drum in a amature band, and it was very joyful thing to me.

[Movie]
Watching movie is also my favorite thing. I usually watch a movie a week. I like blockbuster movies like Avengers, but also small and art movies. Especially, I love 'Before Sunrise/Sunset/Midnight' series and Korean independent movies.

[Books]
Although It is very difficult to understand, I have read Borges many times.
And I try to read the Classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled Ireland, Switzerland and France alone 2 years ago.
It was great to see Cliff of Moher, Arran Island, pubs in Ireland, mountains in Switzerland and just streets in Paris.
Because that was my first trip abroad, my family and friends were worried about, but it was treasurable experiences in my life and I can't forget it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied elementary school education.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Unfortunately, I'm not good at speaking English.
But, I will try everything I can do to communicate hosts.
If you want, I can tell many things about Korea.
If possible, I can play Korean songs or Damien Rice on the guitar :)

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Ireland, Portugal, Switzerland, Timor-Leste (East Timor)
