Hi, I'm Wontak from South Korea.
I'm 26 and backpacked around the world for 1 year. I wanted to know about myself more and to learn how to live my life during the journey but still i don't have the answer hahaha. I get discharged from my military service as an officer with a 28 months of service term. If you want to hear about the Korea Army, i could tell you

I like hangging out with new people, especially in a new country, new city. Let's share great time and share lots of things!!! Anything will be fine for me cause I think everyone has something that I can learn!!!

Hola todos, soy Wontak de Corea del sur. Tengo 26 años. viajé desde Julio de 2018 hasta julio de 2019 y ahora estoy trabajando en mi país. Aprendí español en Medellin por solo 10 semanas, por eso todavía mi español es muy corto. Pero intento avanzar más para conocer más gente y culturas. Me encanta conocer la cultura de cada países y me gusta aprender idiomas. Aún español es difícil para mi pero es divertido.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience local life while I`m traveling and meet new people and make friends around the world.
To see a world with a wider view. I don't want to just staying in a cold beds in a hotels or hostels

One of my friends who traveled Europe for 8 months with his bicycle very strongly recommended me to do a CS. So I started CS.

I want to meet many people who have a different background. And I like meeting new friends. I could learn something from them.

Everything what I met during the travel is soooooo special to me and I believe it would be a great ingredients for growth.
