ABOUT ME

Love traveling, moving aroud! Cannot stand staying in one place doing the same thing. Love adventures playing on the earth.

I studied pharmaceutical science in Japan and worked as a pharmacist total for some years. I have often taken some off period then tried to have many different experiences. Three months of cruiseship all over the world, volunteering in Africa, backpacking, becoming a Japanese language teacher for foreigners... etc. so far and to be continued!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've experienced in US and met many of great people. Sharing experience is a lot of fun.

Interests

Travel. Try new things. To know many other cultures and languages. Art, making something especially using paper and cloth.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a preschool in Malawi in Africa.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experiences of traveling all over the world and volunteer activities in Africa and some other places. Also I can teach Japanese language (have a certificate for a Japanese language teacher) and about Japanese culture. How to make Sushi!

I'd love to learn new languages, especially Spanish and Portuguese for the next adventure I want to do in South America.
