  Description

  Hi, my name is Hari. I am a Korean woman, living in a spacious 3-bedroom apartment in Seoul, which is about a 20-minute metro ride to the center of Seoul.
  
  My place is quite conveniently located within a 5-minute walk to the metro station, line number 1 'Hankuk University of Foreign Studies'.
  
  There are three university campuses around my place within a walking distance, such as HUFS, Kyunghee University and Korea National University of Arts, and it is about a 15-minute drive to Korea university. There are so many cute cafes, eateries, convenience stores and markets in area.
  
  My place has three rooms facing the east and west, so you will have plenty of light from morning to evening. You will be given your own private room and access to the kitchen and living room and a bathroom. There is an E-mart in the basement of the building. You will also be able to use the gym as a resident.
  
  I am thinking about using my living room to host a variety of fun and exciting community programs such as yoga, dance or conscious eating. I look forward to meeting you, learning about your culture and sharing my own in which ever way I can.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I was born and raised in my hometown of Seoul, so you’ll have a friendly guide showing you the city from a true local’s perspective. Let me introduce you to some of my secret spots: a library tucked away in the forest, a no‑name curry joint that serves the best curry in town, and a Buddhist temple perched on a hill with a breathtaking view of the skyline. I’m also a longtime Zen practitioner — if you’re interested in meditation, I’d be delighted to share my experiences or even connect you with the monks and nuns I practice alongside. And as a passionate student of Korean temple cuisine, I’d love to show you the flavors of monastic cooking.

  Aide

  I am currently deep cleaning my apartment, trying to give it a thorough refresh from top to bottom. I would love some help with this, any help you feel comfortable providing would be appreciated. I also sometimes need help with minor repairs, changing light bulbs, tightening a loose cabinet hinge, that sort of thing.
  
  If you enjoy shooting or cutting video, perhaps you could help me capture the space, put together a short tour video, to share online.
  
  Any extra talents you would like to share with the community (yoga, cooking, improv dance, etc.) would be great!

  Hébergement

  I offer a private room in my spacious three‑bedroom apartment in Seoul, just a 20‑minute metro ride from the city center. You’ll be a five‑minute walk from Hankuk University of Foreign Studies Station (Line 1), with HUFS, Kyunghee University and Korea National University of Arts all within easy walking distance—and Korea University just a 15‑minute drive away. The neighborhood is packed with cute cafés, eateries, convenience stores and markets, and there’s an E‑mart in the building’s basement. Each of the three rooms faces east or west, so the apartment is bathed in natural light from morning until evening. You’ll have your own private room plus shared access to the fully equipped kitchen, living room, bathroom and resident gym.
  
  As for meals, I will keep the kitchen well stocked, we can discuss the type of ingredients you prefer for your diet before hands. I cook for myself most of the time, you are welcomed to join me or participate in a community cooking kind of arrangement, or feel free to cook your own meals.
