Hi Hello :)

I'm Eric, nice to meet you!

Recently graduated and now travelling around Japan on a working-holiday learning all about the Japanese cuisine, culture, and everything in between. I'm a huge food enthusiast (who isn't?) and believe that food is the universal language of bringing people together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well... I'm an art school graduate haha.

But no really, I truly believe the best way of understanding a place and it's culture is with locals. I also love language exchange! I can speak English and Cantonese and would like to practice my Japanese and French.

I've worked in a shared house before, and the best part of the job is interacting with guest and sharing stories from around the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

English, Cantonese, little bit of French and Japanese haha
Cooking & recipes (it's actually very simple!)

I am very open-minded and sharing person. Although I do not consider myself a master at anything, just an enthusiast, I am more than happy to share my knowledge.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love cooking for others, although I must warn that I did graduate from art school, and my creativity often adds a funky element to the dishes!
