About Me

I am a student majoring architecture and urban planning.
I temporarily live in Beijing at the moment, so I cannot host people in Kyoto.
I speak fluent English, and Mandarin.
I am especially interested in Hosting Chinese, Nepali-an and Indian people
(I'm planning to travel there, hopefully we can exchange couches :)
I love music and art. I am quite out going, but I'm not the party-all-night kind of person. I'm more of the bookworm type.

大家好。我姓松本,来自日本关西地方。我正在京都大学读研,但为了做关于中国城市规划的研究休学京大课程而来北京开始读研了(暂时在北京,所以不能host你们...)。我是个海归(曾经住在瑞士和美国)所以我会说英语。我现在拼命的学习汉语~ 我在中国去过不少地方。我真爱中国和中国人,而还在探索中国的魅力!希望早日见你们!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe people are more alike than they are different, and I want to widen my views and help bring the world together.

[Experience]
I have been hosted in Nanjing, Ulaanbaatar, Berlin, Basel, Washington D.C., New York
I have hosted guests from China (Mainland and Taiwan), Korea, Finland, Netherlands, Thailand, Germany, U.S.
