About Me

Love people as much as possible 💓 lf they don’t make you bad ;)
My name is Himawari, it means Sunflower in Japanese;)
I’m a musician in the classical music , I play the clarinet. I moved to Europe for continuing researching about music, and to find a my futur job in orchestra.

From 2012 to 2015, I was studying in Paris, it was big changing of view of the world for me. I loved to learn french and discover their culture for a long time, so I was very motivating to come in France. For 3 years of living in Paris, and with my young age ( I was 18 years old ), it was quite easy to learn this langage naturally. Also I learned how I can alive in another country. In the France, there is the base of my European feeling. From 2015, I was in Roma to learn language Italian and their culture, and music. Because of my master, and my interest, I really wanted to leave from Paris. I couldn't accept to have as my identity in full of French culture, at that moment. Also Italy is one of the important country about classical music. Opera was born there with theirs language. the voice Singing is the base of the music (of all instruments), so I wanted to discover and learn by something different view there. from 2016 I live in Geneva and i'm learning at Haute École de Musique de Genève. I started to work there also, I feel really good about the life quality here. It’s always welcome for meeting, I love to drink and go out together, here is more quiet than Paris and Rome, but you will find more nice warm connection of people ;) That's why I'm on couchsurfing!!!!
