About Me

ABOUT ME

I love travelling and adventure. My parents love to have guests from foreign country so I spent my childhood with many exchange students from all over the world. I was having a "normal teenage student life" back in Japan at the time, and always dreaming about going abroad to see the world like the other exchange students did at my parents place. So I did it when I was 17 to Brazil and spent my year in Brazil without any knowledge about the country where I was going to, and even about country enough.
Whole year in Brazil made me grow up and open my mind. And there I got bitten by the travel bug ;)
I left Japan in 2010 after graduating from my uni, and most of time being traveling since then. Lived in England for 2years, then in Australia for 2years. And now next story has just began in Spain where I live with my husband.
It will be so nice meeting you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still new to couchsurfing although having this account since 2011. I've traveled to Morocco and spent few weeks in the middle of nowhere with berbers and there had a great and very unique time. I heard about couchsurfing just before starting the trip by hitch hick all the way from Netherlands to Nepal.
Althogh I am very interested in having couchsurfer at my place but yet have not this part of couchsurfing experience as host yet.
Most of my couchsurfing experience is by being couch surfer or sometime haveing coffee / beers with other couch surfer to share the experience with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Normally I would prefer to travel by myself. But last year in 2012, me and my friend traveled together all the way to India/Nepal by hitchhike. The greatest journey started from Holland and took us a half year to finish it. Well expected more longer journey but it came to an end as we were beginning to see the bottom of our money chest:)
Here is a blog you can have a look: http://chickenandbulldogs.wordpress.com/
