American, Entrepreneur, Traveler, Adventure enthusiast.

Traveled to over 50 countries; Love making new friends, culinary adventures, exploring new places, and checking off amazing experiences.

I'm American, having spent half my life in Japan. Fluent in Japanese, and just starting Mandarin Chinese.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends... Share travel stories, and share new experiences.
Have a guide to show me around, and to reciprocally, be a guide to others
