Description

Hello! I am a 25-year-old woman from Jeju Island, South Korea. Growing up by the sea, I have always felt a deep connection with nature. Watching sunrises and sunsets, walking along the beach, and breathing fresh air bring me great joy. Because of this, I have always wanted to visit Australia, a place known for its beautiful nature and warm-hearted people.

I enjoy genuine communication and cultural exchange. I have traveled to various countries including Canada (Banff), Egypt, Tanzania (Zanzibar), Uganda, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, China, and Japan, where I experienced diverse cultures and learned the importance of open-mindedness and respect.

I love spending time with children and find great happiness in their energy and smiles. I am calm, patient, and always strive to adapt positively to new environments. While my English is not perfect, I communicate sincerely and have no fear of learning.

I hope to stay with a local family in Australia, helping with daily tasks and naturally learning the culture and language. I look forward to building meaningful connections and sharing warm moments.

Thank you for reading, and I’d be happy to talk more!

More details about your skills

I have over three years of experience working as a social worker, where I listened to many people’s stories and helped solve their problems. Through this, I developed strong listening skills, empathy, and calm communication abilities.

Additionally, I hold a national childcare teacher certificate from Korea and have experience working at a daycare center. I am confident in caring for young children, engaging them in play, reading books, and assisting with basic learning activities.

In Uganda, I volunteered for three months teaching MS Office to public officials. I am proficient in basic office programs like Word and Excel and can assist with general document preparation, organization, and simple data editing.

At home, I enjoy cooking and cleaning. Although I’m not a professional chef, I like preparing simple, neat meals and maintaining a clean environment.

I adapt quickly to new surroundings, enjoy learning, and always act responsibly. I believe I can be helpful in childcare, household chores, and office support.

I believe being calm, patient, and positive is one of my strengths. I’m always happy to learn!

What else ...

In my free time, I enjoy running—especially around my neighborhood. It started as a small habit, but now I love it. While running, I get to greet neighbors, enjoy beautiful views, and clear my mind. It’s not always easy to start, but I always feel refreshed after finishing!

I’ve also tried indoor climbing in Korea, which was a lot of fun. I’ve played golf a few times too, and while sports can be challenging, I really enjoy being active with others—it brings a good energy and lots of laughs.

I love playing different kinds of board games. It’s always interesting to discover how games from other countries sometimes feel similar to Korean games. I enjoy learning new rules and sharing the fun with people from different cultures.

I also enjoy listening to pop music, and I’m always curious to learn about others’ hobbies and favorite pastimes. I believe even small shared interests can bring people closer together.
