I've lived in Japan for over 20 years. I'm originally from the UK, near London. I've done all sorts of things for work, been to all sorts of places, and hope to continue travelling, learning and meeting new people for the rest of my life.
Now more than ever we need understanding and openness, and I hope through taking part in Couchsurfing both as host, friend and guest, I can do my small bit to contribute to that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to make new friends here in Japan, and I'd like to reconnect with my UK roots by making new friends when I go back.
