I am from London but now living in Tokyo! I have a degree in engineering but I am now studying Japanese and I love exploring new areas and travelling in fun ways (hitch hiking, bicycle, rail passes).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have great experiences couch surfing around the world and would love to share my new home of Tokyo with travellers.

Interests

My main interests are film photography and skateboarding. I also love playing basketball and exploring to find good value restaurants. Lately I’m studying a lot to improve Japanese so I enjoy readying books and watching TV or movies.

Music, Movies, and Books

My tastes change faster than I can update but lately I’m listing to a lot of electronic (ambient, techno, house) and old J-pop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I visited Palestine this year which was an incredible experience and I really encourage anyone who can to go and visit.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very nerdy and love science but also interested in art and philosophy, I can teach about how things work and physics and would love to learn more about other cultures in their arts and languages.
