About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and have a nice food!

ABOUT ME

I like to meet up new people and share the experiences. I'd love to get some other new ideas or anything that you are excited or really into. I really want to know about your hometown, your country and yourself, of course.

PHILOSOPHY

He is rich that has few wants.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've traveled with the help of organic farm network system called WWOOF in which wwoofers can get food and accommodation at hosts by helping their work in return.
But when I tried to wwoof in Germany, the registration process took me a little bit too long and I gave it up.
Instead I decided to try a couch-surfing a Danish friend told me .
I'd like to visit various foreign countries and talk to the people from a variety of backgrounds and I believe that such experiences will greatly help me to broaden my horizon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tried my first couch-surfing in Germany in 2009 where a host, the couple of Marcus and Elizabeth, kindly accepted me for three nights at their home in a very beautiful village and we talked a lot and I really enjoyed staying with them. Then I knew that CS was really cool. Now I'm getting more and more excited about it.
If you've never heard/experienced wwoofing, then I recommend that you tried it once too. I say that two systems are similar in that they share the fundamental idea about the importance of cultural exchange among people from different backgrounds to make the world a better place.
