Hi! I am Ouafae, I was born and raised in Amsterdam and I'm 26 years old.
I studied tourism and had a wonderful time working fulltime at the Iamsterdam Tourist Centre in Amsterdam until 1st of January 2017. I'm planning to travel for around 3 months in Japan and do some voluntary work here and there for culture exchange and get to know people and make new friends while exploring the country!
I've been to Japan in the summer of 2015 and brought my own bycicle to roam around Tokyo and even though it was for just a short time (7 days) it was amazing and want to go back and stay longer to discover more of its culture, old tradition, nature and meet new people and make new friends.
My plan is to stay everywhere a bit in Japan so I will be roaming around a bit more.
That's why I'm looking for someone who would like to share his or her home with me.
In exchange I'll be happy to give anyone who offers me shelter an extra pair of hands in the house and/ or we could explore the area or do something fun together while I'm staying at your house.
:D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling to Japan bringing my own bike back in 2015

Teach, Learn, Share

If someone needs it, I could teach or help practising English or Dutch or some Spanish (which is better than my Japanese at least) for hosts who are willing to share there home for a few nights with me :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

We could also share a nice experience by going on sightseeing, exploring places in your country you haven't visited yet, do new things and many other things. I'm also open for new ideas! :D
