“Today is the oldest you've ever been, and the youngest you'll ever be again.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt

Meeting with new people has been the most exciting and joyful moment for me, and I love traveling and studying languages.

I studied English, so that I could talk with more people around the world.
I studied Spanish, so that I could talk even more people and know more about my Hispanic friends.
Right now I am studying Portuguese, so that I can communicate with my relatives in Brazil who immigrated from Japan about 80 years ago.
I know that the knowing language is not always necessary for communication, but for me it is an important key to open new doors and get involved in other cultures.

Living in different countries made me very open, easy-going and quite unique person. I would say that I am 100% Japanese with a bit of american and Latin spices.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is one of the best way I experienced to meet up with new people, share experiences and cultures, know about the world and open my eyes even more.
