I'm Kanako who live in Yokohama,Japan.

I'm very easygoing, I always have a smile on my face and love a good laugh.
My motto is "everything is not by chance but inevitable."

I've worked as a teacher in a primary school and a junior high school in Japan for about 9years.

I have the experience that lived abroad twice.
One is Australia for one year on a working holiday.
The other is Botswana(Africa) for two years in volunteer work.

I've visited 25 countries before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's because I want to know the culture of the country more deeply,Not only to see tourist spots.
All the time,the most impressive on my trip, is people I met, not place where I visit.
I want to meet you, talk with you and smile with you on this small earth:)
