Hi, I am Yohei from Niseko Japan which is one of the famous ski destination in Japan. I ski a lot during winter, and camp in summer. I love outdoor activities to feel nature. I love to travel to meet people and experience the local culture. I have my own camping ground in Niseko which is open for all year round. I provide glamping style tent stay as well. I have studied sustainability and sustainable lifestyle in University. I am interested in simple life and tiny house. I want to travel and see sustainable town, city and communities. I also want to meet locals to experience different lifestyle, culture and food. My work is running my own camp site in Northern Japan called Hokkaido. I also do some gardening to make a bit of vegetables and flowers. I love being out nature and feel the appreciation of the nature. I am also a host on WWOOF and I accept people around the year. I work with wwoofers to build my project of creating sustainable lifestyle. I lived in Canada and United States for a year for each country to do study. I have traveled around south east Asia and India for 4 month in 2011. In 2018 November, I am doing my first Euro trip for a month. There I have started my Couchsurfing experience. And I have really liked it and became a big fun of Couchsurfing. I love meeting new people and the whole concept of Couchsurfing is beautiful. We can create beautiful world at least Inside of our heart. But it also change the world as well. Thanks for reading my profile Look forward to see you soon.

In winter time I get many requests who are looking for a place to stay in Niseko. Since I get busy in winter and do not have much time to take care the guest or arrange a sleeping place, I prefer to just meet up in town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couch surfing for alternative and unique way of traveling. I love to interact with people around the world with different backgrounds, culture, languages, different way of thinking, and so on.
I think sharing space, knowledge, experience, skills can help this society to become a better place.
We live in this one beautiful planet.
So I love to use Couchsurfing.
