Just an ordinary international student from Japan staying in England until the end of March 2021. I grew up in the countryside of Japan being surrounded by mountains, rivers, and rice field. I have more than a year of experience staying long-term at different family's houses. I always have had good reputations and they appreciated me for being a good company who proactively help with house chores.

I am calm. I like going to museums, galleries as well as mountains and rivers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am basically going to be homeless starting November. I completed my study in Newcastle, and now I need to move out of a student dormitory. However, I am almost broke. I cannot go back to my home country yet due to the travel restriction of Covid-19. I am looking for a job in London, yet I would not have enough money to pay for my rent in London in November. If anyone can let me stay at your place even for a few weeks, that would be awesome. Thank you for taking the time to read it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Woke up, went to the bus stop, took a random bus which had the shortest line. The bus took me to a random port I don't know. I took the ferry from there and crossed the sea. I arrived at an independent island I have never even heard of. I took a van, kept going for hours and hours. Made friends with people on the van. Got off and roamed around the town. I met a fisherman who asked me what I am doing on foreign land. Became friend and drank on the shore with him and his friends. Slept at their house. Woke up, went to another town...........

What I Can Share with Hosts

I used to teach the Japanese language from beginner to advanced learners. I will give you free Japanese lessons and e-copy of textbooks if you like. I will also cook Asian dishes (Japanese and Filipino) for you if it suits your taste. I will basically do any basic tasks of a housekeeper including cleaning the toilet.
