About Me

I love to meet people from all over the globe. I love traveling, hiking, camping, watching good movies, listening to good music, and enjoying good conversations with interesting people :)
I also love wine and sake. A good bottle of wine/sake and a good conversation; what could be better in life? I also regularly pracetice yoga and meditation for self-development.

Looking forward to new adventures in a new chapter of my life and meetig world travellers here :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled almost 1,000km in the sub-Saharan desert in Senegal with a compass on a small motorcycle (Yamaha AG125) when I lived there as a community development agent for two years in a small town among Peul/Fulani nomads and semi-nomads.

Walked about 1,300km on the 88-Temple Buddhist pilgrimage path with a tent in Shikoku, Japan.

2,000-km motorcycle tour in France and another motorcycle tour in Turkey and the Balkan Peninsula all the way to back to France :)

Teach, Learn, Share

When I have a guest in my home country, I usually like to take them around to sites off-the-beaten paths and enjoy some time with them when I have time.
I can also teach some Japanese, and if the guests are interested in learning Japanese vegetarian/vegan (Sho-jin) cooking, I can teach them that, too :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach any language I can speak or Japanese/French cuisine if they are intersted. I can teach them how wo prepare shojin (Japanese Buddhist vegan cuisine), too!
