-----First of all, I'm not hosting. I've got some messages about hosting, so I just want to make it clear first.-----

I have realized that getting to know people has an important meaning in my life. Recently I have started to try things which I was interested, but never have courage to try. Those include joining flamenco and hip hop dance lesson, wwoofing experience, bouldering etc. Each of these activities are not special, but the outcome is still amazing. New experiences themselves give you benefit; but rather than that, meeting people there gives me more. We can share our ideas, and different point of views. It brings laughter. I believe that getting to know people, and try to understand each other is a key to a happier life in many ways.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I heard about couchsurfing, I thought that I would never join in. I was more scared to meet a person whom I've never met. However, this spring, I started to think about when I feel excited about my life. Then my answer was...I feel excited when I get to know new people. When I travel, the most important thing for me is to enjoy meeting with local people, culture and to feel the atmosphere there. After I reached that conclusion, I got very interested in couchsurfing.

Interests

yoga, eating, go around with my motorscooter, making pottery, knitting, sports, nature, taking a walk

Some parts of me like things which make me calmer. I think some of my interests are related to each other. When I make pottery, knitting, for example, it clears my mind; it helps me go back to my heart in some way. On the other hand, it is nice to talk to friends, meet people and laugh a lot, and enjoy the moment there.

Recently, I've just applied for a full marathon in autumn. I'm preparing myself for it right now!
