Introduction
Hi. I am from Seoul and New York. I've been working and living in Barcelona since last year. This is my first time being in Europe and so far I am enjoying my life here very much. I am a laid-back and tranquil person looking to make some new friends and professional contacts.
I joined expat.com on 14 April 2010.

Expat experience
Location, location, location. 1.5 hours flight to Paris and Rome. Along Costa Brava and to Pyrenes,there are always things to do and places to go. The city steeped in past glory, scars and future ambitions. 19th century modernist buildings of Eixample and medieval alleys of Gotico, their charms have never worn out for me even after living here for 2 years.
Motor scooter noises, relatively amateurish services, pickpockets, shops closing early and often
It's New York. It's the city of cities, yet its soul dances to a saxophone solo on a street corner as white steam rises from its manholes.
Loneliness
Language, food, nature.
I feel incompatible with the city.
