About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Study and think about my future. I have had a feeling that I am just in the middle of changing my stage!

ABOUT ME

I am a student, the third grade of a doctor course in Tokyo, Japan. I have just finished an overseas education in France for one year. I will have been a student at least until Sep/2011. My major is Computational Fluid Dynamics. I have studied on the ocean color detected by satellites in a coastal area, especially the river plume dynamics.

PHILOSOPHY

I would say, I do not know why I am living my life, but I like to have new experiences and feeling of excite during I am living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I do not have a couch. However I can see and talk and share and enjoy each personality and points of view. Also it is my pleasure if I could help a stranger. I am sorry that my English is not good at all, but I will try to do my best.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Once. For the first, I just heard about CS from my new friend. Since he said CS was a great system, I was interested in CS. And now, I had a great experience with CS!

Interests

Cave,
I was a member of caving club. I explored some caves almost 50 times. "Inside the earth" is very interesting for me.

Space,
I am interested in space, although I do not know why. I want to see the earth in my eyes if I could do! That's why my study is related to satellite image processing.

Writing,
I love to write something in my mind. If I had a job related to writing something, I think I am very happy.
I do not know why I am on the way to be a scientist, but I am also interested in scientific thing, and I could not decide to stop studying now.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like sound of musical instrument. I like movies and books which I can move my mind and I can have a positive feeling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrise and sunrise from the wide ground and the wide sea in Australia. Launching a rocket in Tanegashima island in Japan. Joyful experience I could only exclaiming with delight. Writing a column in a little known mail magazine for three years. Overseas education in one of the most biggest French institute for one year and having had a nice experience and friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to explore in caves, how to connect with people, how to improve English for Japanese, how to be a good teacher for private lesson for junior high or high school students, how to survive in foreign country.
