About Me

CURRENT MISSION

entertain our couchsurfing guests

ABOUT ME

I was born in Kyusyu, Japan and live in Yokohama now. I've been studying medicine for 4 years(still left 2 more years). I've decided to stop my school and go abroad to learn English and to explore. I traveled around Australia for 6 months, India for 1 month and Nepal for 1 month. Then, I came back to Japan this April.
Traveling is amazing! Meeting new people who have different backgrounds and talking with them are really fun. I've never known how fun it is. Also, I love nature. I enjoy seeing and feeling nature that is different from Japanese one.
If you like NBA(American basketball), we must be good friends :b !!

PHILOSOPHY

Full of gratitude to what I have already and anything.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to hear your experience on traveling and be inspired by people who have positive attitude.
