ADVISORY!!! :)

I CAN ONLY ACCEPT SOLO FEMALE TRAVELLER AS MY APARTMENT IS VERY SMALL, WHICH MEANS I WILL HAVE TO SHARE ROOM WITH YOU. IF THAT`S STILL OKAY SEND ME A REQUEST. ALSO, I MAY ONLY BE ABLE TO HOST FOR 2 DAYS MAXIMUM ONLY AS I ALWAYS NEED TO GO OUT THE CITY MOST OF THE TIME.

THANKS!!! :)

Hi,

I am Phoebe, from the Philippines. But currently I am living and studying in Japan under a scholarship for a Masters degree.

But aside from the rigours of the academic life, I am learning violin, taking dance lesson, and Nihonggo classes. I guess I have the thirst and passion for learning new things.

I love exploring different places and to meet people from different cultures. Most of the time, I`ve been a solo traveler. Travelling gives me the time to reflect and to breathe from the stress of a city, academic life.

I would love to meet people and to hear about their stories. And perhaps meet people who I could share my interests and stories too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At first, I was afraid on trying Couchsurfing but upon hearing positive response from traveler-friends had convinced me that this is a better way to be absorbed and be integrated into a local culture that you are trying to explore.
