About Me

I'm a Korean native. I spent my childhood in InCheon and educated in Seoul for about 20years.
Howeve,r I always have a dream to live abraod some day.
I like travelling most.
In 2018, I had been travelling Perth in South Australia for a week and Okinawa for 4 days.
Those places were very peaceful but awesome. great experiences,I'm sure.

I would like to meet new people and do small talks, but I am not 20's, and working in Korea as an general office worker so I can't stay up all night:)
If you want to stay up all night with some drinks, please go Itaewon and Hongdae, I'm 100% sure you can enjoy night life in those places.
I'm willing to introduce Korea if you want.

I live near Sindang station, located at 2nd and 6th metro transportation, which is two stations from WangSipRi station.

*My Seoul Tips for first travellers to Seoul
: Any restaurants in Seoul doesn't want you to pay "tips" and the prices of many foods are relatively low when you go to restaurants. Cooking Korean foods, which are called "Han-Sik" is also possible if you like, but as I know many hostels doesnt allow cooking and it would not be easy. Maybe you can join the cooking class at Seoul; you can just google or naver it with Han Sik.

You can go anywhere in Seoul by subway, and the main subway line is 2nd line (green).
Seoul's subway and bus system allow free transfer up to 3 times unless you use the same transporation at the same spot once again the day, and it's the most convinience thing in my life at here, Seoul.
If you want to hang around with people, Hongdae (means Hongik Univerisity) and Itaewon are the best choice.
If you like to hiking, NamSan and BukHanSan should be the choice; San means mountain, and there are lots of tracks to BukHanSan and you can check.
If you want to shop, Euljiro and about the three big department stores including tax free shop and DongDaemoon (local shopping) are famous place.

Please enjoy Seoul and let me know if you have any questions :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

travelling alone to Osaka even during 3 days

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm learning everyday from every moment:) my life motto is "seize the day"
I like to exercise in a gym and I can show you a gym on Friday (the gym can give free opportunity to members' family or friends.)
I'd like to do langauge exchange between me and you, thorugh this opportunity.

I and my husband are eager to learn English and Chinese and we'd love to travel.
so we can guide you for Korea after work or during weekends if you want
I can introduce Koreans and Korean culture
(P.S. I was a private tutor of mathmatics and sciences when I was a university student)
and let you know some hot spots in Korea.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live in new apartment near one of stations, in the middle of Seoul,
I'm afraid to say that there's a little bit incline 5-10 mins from station to my apartment, but you can take bus right front of the station.
In my house: refrigerator, table (for 4-5 people), couch, warm light- I can show you the pictures.
