Hi there!

I'm a traveler and itinerant laborer. I used to work in the CG industry in San Francisco before quitting my job and moving to Japan. For the past six years I have been working and traveling around Japan and neighboring countries, seeking new experiences meeting new challenges.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing a few years ago when I was living in San Francisco to host travelers, but ended up only using my roommate's account, which is why my account has been neglected :o

I enjoy meeting new people and sharing stories, discovering similarities and appreciating differences. I respect the CS culture and the philosophy behind creating opportunities for travelers to cross paths.

Interests

I love the freedom of exploring new places, trying new things and the thrill of making new connections and having great conversations. And of course eating good food and drinking good drink :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I loved the movie Samsara and any movie with a good script and creative direction, especially ones that move me or broaden my perception of our world.
Music I'm listening to now: thievery corporation, fat Freddy's drop, gramatik, Chinese man, panda dub, jamiroquai, dub, reggae, electroswing
