CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Chiharu. I'm a bit shy but actually very talkable. So, sometimes I need a little bit of time to feel better with new people. Most of the time, I enjoy to share good time with them, so don't worry :)

I’m currently living in Brooklyn, NY for my work after I got a graphic design degree at an art school located in the heart of NYC. My passion is mostly towards motion graphics and I’d love to collaborate with my friends from both of the same industry and different ones!
I really love Brooklyn, still new to me but love this relaxing and diverse atmosphere.

PHILOSOPHY

Meet interesting people and share good time. And then, expand my community :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to meet new people and if possible let me stay in your place!
I'm living in a shared room but my owner doesn't allow me to let people stay in my place... If you host me, I can share Japanese culture(I love cooking Japanese cuisine!) with you!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been couchsurfed by friends and I've hosted my friends a couple of times.

Interests

Travel, Cooking, Music, Eating and Meeting people. Also, drawing and taking pictures are the most favorite activities. When I travel, I always draw pictures of people I met and places I visited.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: CSS, Sigur Ros, For A Minor Reflection, Hikaru Utada
Movies: Little Miss Sunshine, Amelie, Nobody Knows
Books: Norwagian Wood by Haruki Murakami

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw the northern light in Iceland, which is one of the most amazing experience I've ever had!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd say, I can teach and share how to cook Japanese food. Also, I can show you unique places and events in Tokyo. I want travelers to know how nice Japan is :)
