I love talking with new people, travelling abroad. Finding new people, feeling other's culture motivate me to travel!!

PHILOSOPHY

Tomorrow is another day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My good friend introduced the CS to me. He enjoyed this over 40 times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been well hosted by many awesome people. And I love that. I would like to host but currently my family is not accepting :( so near future, I would definitely host the surfer!

Interests

I want to explore the town, the historical places, and so on. And I love a festival!
Another way to enjoy the town is to live actually there. Enjoying cafe hopping, just relax in the pack etc are lovely in my opinion.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like films and books.

Film: A bit serious is rather my favour. But, sometimes do watch the action one.

Nowadays, I am reading old books of Japanese. Many written before the World War II mainly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love driving, and the moment is when I drove in the first day.
and olso One of the awesome time is when I have leading my team and done built town lights in affected area by Tsunami. We mobilised in total equal to 13400USD, so that was really cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experience in Asia countries trip, and of cause my own Japanese culture.

I am good at Origami (e.g. paper crane ). So I can teach that :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have been working on the International negotiation of the United Nations. So I can share how the UN works and way to get in? And so many funny idiot stories as well haha
