Hi! I'm Akemi/Kelly. First, a big hug and thank you to all the amazing couchsurf hosts on here- y’all have blown me away with your generosity and kindness throughout my travels 😭💕🙏🏻

Things I really like: painting; mindfulness and meditation and going with the flow of the universe; being outside and hanging with bugs, dirt and rocks; randomly bursting into song (let's jam!); creative writing; deep introspective sometimes existential conversations about humanity and interconnectedness and time and dimensions of space etc ; running and yoga; veganism, Tardigrades, corny games and team building exercises; creating music and meals and laughs with friends and strangers, blazing and doing all of the above

PHILOSOPHY
We are all pure love and consciousness at our core- we’ve just forgotten as our collective and individual egos have completely taken over the human psyche.

Transform yourself to transform the world. What happens at the smallest scale of interaction is what gets magnified to the largest.

教，学，和分享

I'm traveling to learn about different people and communities and ways of life than what I know here in my little corner of Southern California - would love to talk with you all about the similarities and differences between us and learn what you are about!

And cooking, and music jams!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Positive energy and good vibes, meditation practice, singing (I know some cool rounds we could do!), insight on the system and world views we have here in the US and the unique experience of being 4th generation Japanese American. Love for nature and love of life.

If you want exercise motivation I'd be happy to be your running/workout buddy!
