I'm originally from Osaka, Japan and went to college in the United States. After graduated, I have been working in Tokyo for about 4 years.

I currently live in Chigasaki, Kanagawa which is one of the most famous beach cities in Japan. Surf in the morning at the beach 5 min away from home and work afternoon.

Very relaxed, easy going and passionate to learn new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my college years, I have traveled many countries and met many nice people who helped me out whenever needed. I think it is now my turn to help other people who travel in my country.

Please feel free to ask any question about availability/home/Japan/myself/anything.

We, my wife and myself, have an extra room and surfboard you can use, so lets go surfing together in the morning :)
