The first thing people should know is that I live in a TINY apartment, with very limited sleeping space, so it's difficult to host more than one person at a time!

Also, history, language, and culture:
These are topics that will inevitably come up when you spend time with me. I'm deeply fascinated by geography, astrophysics, and anthropology, and will probably have lots of questions about your society and culture. What else? Twelve years living and working in Japan (Okinawa/Kanto). Beer/Wine/Whisky lover. Music lover (Rock, metal, rap, avant-garde, ambient, folk)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe that the interpersonal aspect is the most important part of travel. Gaining new friends an insider perspective is key to a fun and enriching excursion. This Fall, I will travel to Seoul, Paris, Brussels, and Tartu for networking and sightseeing. I hope to meet you there!

音乐、电影和书籍

Lots! Just ask me!
