ABOUT ME

I teach English at a high school in a small town in southern Kyushu. It is a pretty quiet life in the countryside. I like hiking, going to onsen, riding bikes, and playing video games.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted surfers in Bergen, Norway. Surfed in Paris, Oslo, Stockholm, Hamburg, Berlin, Dresden, Prague, and Antwerp in the summer of 2010.

More recently I surfed in Portland, OR and had the kind of weird and fun experience that confirms Portland's reputation.
