Hi,I'm Ryuta, an anesthesiologist in Japan.
Once I took 1 year off and traveled through the Americas, so I speak some English and un poco de español. I love talking with new people about cultures, languages, travel stories...any topics! The more I travel, the more I wanna show people from other countries how beautiful and interesting my country is. I just moved back from Sakai(south part of Osaka) to Kobe, where I spent university days. I have been away from Couchsurfing for the last 2 years because of the COVID and my occupation. But you know, you only live once! I’m back here:)

I live alone but my apartment has two spare rooms. I’m mostly away from home during the day . Maybe good for travellers who appreciate some private time, but I also like hanging out, so good for fun-loving travellers, too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel to another country, I'd like to know what it is like to live in the country, not as a tourist
And I'm curious about places that only local people go to
As a host, I just want you to love Japan so let’s hang out and have nice food and drinks
