About Me

ABOUT ME

A travel lover. I spent a half year to travel around the world 4 years ago, and then can not stop the desire to visit more places anymore. I am a friendly humor person who want to make more friends from all over the world. People who meet me on the first time may consider me a gentle guy who does not talk to much, but after they became my good friends, they will find that I am a funny talkable person.

PHILOSOPHY

Do my best to explore and enjoy the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to show travelers around my city, and share my travel experiences with them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

July 2012 in Osaka and Kyoto, I experienced the Couch Surfing first time with 2 hosts. I have an amazing memory with them. We eating, drinking and talked a lot. I love to interact with the people who has different culture and language. That is really fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I joined the 4 days Inca Trail when I was in Peru. I climbed the mountains from 2000 meters to 4600 meters within 2 days. That was an unforgettable trip for me.
Another amazing thing is diving with a lot of sharks. When I visited Tahiti, I did scuba diving. Every time I jump into the beautiful sea, there are many sharks around me. I was so scare on the first time, but then I so enjoy to swim with those cute big fishes. Now, I still can type those words by all my fingers... Nothing happened... ha ha
