I am a 25 year old bookseller and aspiring filmmaker living in Oakland, California, who will be traveling in Japan for three months this spring. I have been to Japan once before, in 2012, and was stunned by the beauty of the place and the people I met in it. I can't wait to go back and learn more.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

A tight budget, an opportunity to practice a new language, and a desire to meet people and immerse myself more fully in a place.

Interesses

Papermaking and bookmaking (printing, binding, etc.), experimental music and cinema, reading, philosophy, Japanese history and culture.
