I like simple things - food around my neighborhood, chill days in the park or on my balcony, read a book or ride the snowboard/skateboard, play guitar and sing a song or two.

I usually don't like drinking and partying. Also too much noise/people.

I will not host you if you come to Tokyo to party.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"stay is a sensitive word. we wear who stayed and who left in our skin forever." - salt. (nayyirah waheed)

I've met amazing people traveling, usually in the most unexpected places/situations. Hosting surfers brings more great people into my life (hopefully ;-)
