Hi! I am a postgraduate student at Kanazawa University, researching comics in Asia. Also I am a mother of three children.

My house is big and located in a residential area in Takaoka.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make good use of my spacious house, I wanted to houst people from all over the world to share a good time and exchange cultural interests. I thought it would be a good opportunity for my children too, to experience intercultural communication with different people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2002-2003 I lived in UK for a year as an exchange student with a scholarship from my home university in Japan to learn English and children's language acquisition.
In 2007 - 2008 I lived in China as an exchange student again with a scholarship to learn Chinese and its culture.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Japanese. Also I have learned how to wear kimono, so I can dress you up with kimono if you are interested. For women only though;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experiences in traveling, studying abroad, some Japanese traditional culture and more.
