Hello, the world :-)! I am Marika from Fukuoka, Japan. I would love to meet new friends from all over the world. If you're looking for accomodation in Fukuoka, please contact me. I and my family are ready for welcoming you :)

Sice I was studying at a university in England, I think my English level is okay, but my family cannot speaak English or any other languages. So we would like to host couchsufers who are open-minded, outgoing, and good at communicating with people enough to cover our language skill.

We can host up to two persons. You can use a private room(about 7m×7m wide) with an air conditioner, TV, a table and futon×2. Please make sure to come home by 8pm or before. You can come to my place by using bus (it takes 5minutes from the nearest subway station, plus 5minutes walk after getting off the bus). You can access to city centre of Fukuoka either bus or subway (time depends on which transports you use. but usually you canreach there within 30-40mintes).

My place is located in a dveloping area. Here is not only close to city centre, but you can also find a nice beach, big park, two shopping malls around my town.

We cannot always host you since we have school and work. So please contact me first of all.

Have a safe and nice trip and hopefully see you soon! I hope you're make great memories while you are travelling in Japan :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friend introduced this community site to me :) Since all my family members are out in daytime, we cannot host people more than three days. So I thought Couchsurfing is a great tool in that hosting people for a couple of days is okay and I can meet travel lovers from around the world :D
