About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Renovate an old building to Hostel and Co-working space with as many people as possible! Because it's more fun to do with more people :D

Inviting as many as people to little rural town in Oita prefecture, Kyushu from all over the world :-D
Make this small town little more international and mixed with some cultures.

ABOUT ME
I love travelling since I traveled from Tokyo to Kyushu by myself when I was 19 years old.
I have grown and lived in Tokyo more than 20 years.
As it's known that Tokyo is one of the most busiest city and I'm tired of being there. So 2 years ago, I decided to move to somewhere slow and comfortable place in rural area.
And now I live in Saiki city( actually it's kind of town but they call it city) Oita prefecture on Kyushu island.
I'm very satisfied to live here so I would like as many people as possible to know that Japan is not only about Tokyo, Kyoto or Fukuoka.

MY LIFE IN HERE
I'm a kind of Community adviser now at tourism department of city office.
Working 4 days a week at the office, working on my laptop at home so I can be busy sometimes but I have still time to show you around and now I'M RENOVATING AN OLD BUILDING TO HOSTEL AND CO-WORKING SPACE!
It will be fantastic experience if you could help the renovation ;)

While on my holiday, we can go camping, canyoning, cycling and more... activity together!
I live with Nobita, the dog who is a mix of Beagle and Shiba.

I am very open, friendly and love Japanese food, old and new Japanese cultures.
I love to explore little things in the old town, old Japanese clothes called Noragi, Movies, and Retro things.

Nobita is little bit shy at first but will be ok so soon :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently, I am planning with my friends to renovate 1 floor of a building and open a co-working space and Hostel. We are looking for someone to be one of our team or just help us for a while.
It will be so much fun and great time to spend sometime in Saiki where you can have the best fresh sushi for very cheap price!
Anyway, the hostel and co-working space will be opened in the end of 2018!
