Description
Hi! I’m Wes (Wooseok) Kim from South Korea, currently exploring Indonesia.
I speak English, Chinese, and Korean fluently, and I’m learning Italian—so I love chatting with people from everywhere!
I’d say I’m a mix of curious adventurer and easy-going helper. I enjoy being active, trying new things, and exploring local lifestyles.
I’m organized and reliable, so whether it’s daily chores, physical work, or creative projects, I can pitch in with energy and a smile.
I’m excited to travel and stay with hosts like you because I want to immerse myself in local culture, meet amazing people, and learn skills along the way.
Back home, I’m always curious about how communities live, and I love hands-on experiences that teach me both practical skills and life lessons.
I care about sustainable living, learning from different cultures, and growing as a person.
My hobbies? Surfing and Yoga, exploring food, and creating small DIY projects or art.
Even though I’m new to Workaway, I’ve volunteered in hospitality and community projects before, and I always try to bring positivity and dedication wherever I go.
I’d be thrilled to join your project, help out wherever needed, and make the experience fun for everyone. Can’t wait to meet you and get started!

More details about your skills
I’m fluent in English, Chinese, and Korean, and I’m currently learning Italian, which helps me communicate easily with people from different cultures.
Here’s some of what I can bring to your project:
* Hospitality & Operations: Experience running cafes and guesthouses, so I’m familiar with daily operations, customer service, and keeping things organized.
* Marketing & Content Creation: Managed surfboard marketing including Instagram accounts, and created surfing and YouTube videos, which can help with promoting your project or sharing your story online.
* Engineering & Team Projects: Participated in university car racing projects, designing and building vehicles, which taught me teamwork, problem-solving, and practical hands-on skills.
* International Business: Worked in automotive parts sales for Europe and Asia, which developed my communication, organization, and professional responsibility.
All these experiences make me confident that I can help with a variety of tasks, from hands-on work to creative projects, hospitality, and organization.
I’m eager to contribute and support your team wherever I’m needed!
