I am an Assistant Language Teacher on an island called Kouzushima in Tokyo-To. I love traveling and spent a year studying abroad in Spain during college before coming to Japan. I am a pretty social person, and hope to go into diplomacy one day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people, sharing culture, language, stories, and experiences!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've walked part of the Camino de Santiago in Spain, and hope to walk the Kumano Kodo while I'm in Japan. Also, while it isn't something I've done yet I am training for a 58 km race on Oshima (another Tokyo island) in March!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to offer tips for studying Spanish or English if you are interested. Of course I could use some tips for learning Japanese as well in return!
