Born to Travel.
Two segregated cultures While walking down the street, it almost felt like I was constantly bouncing two different worlds back and forth.

During the three months of the trip in America, I offered to cook Korean food to some of our hosts. Korean food is not something they are used to eating at home, but I wanted to show them it’s easy and delicious. It was a great experience for me too. I like cooking, [...] Read more »
