About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Observe anything and everything coldly, then pick up the stuff what I like.

ABOUT ME

Open-minded and lazy but logical homeless trying to be an incognita.
I was born and raised in Japan, unfortunately. I got national license of clinical engineer and I've worked at some general hospitals in Tokyo, so lived there more than ten years. It was fun but I noticed that my day-to day life in Tokyo had became just waste of time. Fortunately I have the freedom of my life, I quit the job and apartment and changed myself into a sort of homeless.

I don't smoke. I love tea, authentic food and cooking.

PHILOSOPHY

If all goes slow, it's gonna be OK.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting unique people and cultural exchange, and interchange, especially cuisine and local cooking. I really want to share recipes each other.
Get the knowledge about language, medical system, culture be allied to food and music.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Everyone I met on CS is full of curiousity and energy, and always it provides me golden experience! I've been recognising the human's potentials.

Interests

Cooking, eating, learning languages, traveling, helping others and being in silence.
I'm not sporty but stretching is my daily activity. I'm not a serious Yogini but I do.

Music, Movies, and Books

Classical music, Monoral, Enigma, MJ, Sarah Brightman, these are my favourites but I listen music occasionally.
Hiromi Uehara is the best jazz pianist.
I don't watch TV, so I'm poor at Japanese entertainment, but I'm a kind of fan of figure skating.
I watch movies only on aeroplanes.
I read books but only written in or translated into Japanese; It's a shame.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The huge earthquake happened in east japan in 2011. It showed me beautiful veil of "well-organised" Japanese society. Thanks for this event, I got a new sight.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to get recipes of local food. I can teach some tips of Japanese art, like calligraphy, Origami, cooking and more.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Recipes and cooking knowledges from Japanese kitchen. I'm good at vegetarian cooking not only Japanese but Indian, Moroccan, French, etc.
I can show you how to prepare Origami, japanese paper craft.
