Hi this is Midori, I’m from Tokyo, Japan.

I have traveled to 40+ countries around the world. I love learning about different cultures through interaction with locals.

I am a certified Japanese language teacher. I can teach you Japanese language and culture, you know what, it’s not only about Anime!
Midori means green in Japanese, so my life goal is to make the world more Midori.
Soba buckwheat noodle is my life.
Miyazaki movies are in my heart always.

I am tidy, pet-friendly, and kid-friendly and try to be eco friendly as much as I could. I don’t smoke cigarettes, I drink sometimes.
Just moved to Spain and I will live here for at least a year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love meeting new people and I believe it makes this world a better place. I am a peace seeker, it might bring the world peace I guess.
