I am a university student studying International Economics in Tokyo🇯🇵
Last year, I took a leave of absence from university to travel around the world.
And now, I'm planning to travel Central America cause it's one of my favorite area in the world.
Currently, I am staying in Ecuador, which is the 28th country on my journey☺️

PERSONALITY： Curious, Easygoing, Lough a lot

LIFE MOTTO:
When in doubt, follow the path that excites my heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To deepen my understanding of each country.
While traveling, before entering a country for the first time, I always research its culture, history, and national character. This ensures that my trip is not just about sightseeing but also serves as valuable knowledge for the future. I believe that the best way to deeply learn about a country is to talk directly with the locals. That's why I use Couchsurfing.

Interests

・TRAVELING✈️
The reason I travel is that I can meet people I wouldn't normally interact with while in my home country.
Japan is an island nation, and the moment I step outside, a whole new world opens up. I am incredibly fascinated by learning about cultures and customs different from my own and seeing cityscapes I have never seen before, and every moment excites me.
Therefore, I feel happy every day to be able to visit different places like this moment.
I hope to remain a traveler for life.

・TRADITIONAL FOOD🍔
''Food'' is the thing I look forward to the most during my travels. I usually visit restaurants frequented by locals rather than those aimed at tourists. This allows me to better understand the daily lives and dietary habits of the local people.
Currently, I am keeping a record of the delicious foods I’ve tasted around the world and plan to try making them myself when I return to Japan.

・SPORTS⚾️
I enjoy all kinds of sports, but I especially love baseball. I played baseball for ten years starting from when I was seven, and I practiced constantly, especially during high school. As a result, I have great confidence in my physical stamina. Additionally, I also enjoy watching football and basketball.

・ALCOHOL🍷
Since discovering ''WINE'', I’ve become quite fond of alcohol. When I was in Japan, I used to enjoy drinking about three times a week. There are many delicious alcoholic beverages around the world. Unfortunately, due to limited funds, I haven't been able to indulge much on this trip. However, one of my dreams is to someday have the financial means to taste and compare wines and beers from around the world.
