About Me

Hi! I'm Sebastian (or Seb) 26, from the UK. I was an engineer for 4 years and now I'm leaving the desk with my sights on... The world!! I've been travelling since April 2018, crossed the USA in a van, worked at some cool communities/organic farm, then whizzed around SE Asia met some awesome people and also learned a lot about myself, yoga, meditation and again... Farming!! I think I'm now an organic farming nut!! :D

So I'm here in Japan , yes you guessed it I'm organic farm hopping and so far it's great! I want to see a lot more of Japan though so if I'm coming through your town/city maybe you could be the awesome kind and generous HUMAN to put me up?! We can share stories and maybe we'll be friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing to meet new people, explore the world (on a budget) and have great experiences with great people! I like the idea of couch surfing as the kindness of a host can be passed on when the people they host will host people in the future, and the circle of kindness continues! And who knows maybe these people coming to your door will be your new best friend, teach you something, or at least provide a funny story!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite song is a Beatles track (sorry I'm so mainstream) I'm only sleeping. But I mainly like alternative music like Toro Y Moi, Avalanches and Glass Animals. Also oldies like Van Morrison and Dire Straits and newbies like Childish Gambino and Mick Jenkins.

Movies I like weird and thoughtful films like The Shining, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malcovic and Die Hard.

Books I read A LOT and any good book will satisfy me, I love Tolkien, Asimov and recently read Rudyard Kipling's Kim, great book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drove coast to coast USA with my best friend for 3 months!

Teach, Learn, Share

I play guitar and sing, but always looking for a teacher or someone to jam.

Painting/anything creative.

Construction/building projects I'm getting some good knowledge but need more more more!

I've been told I'm a good cook (especially desserts!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My funny stories, my laughter, my conversation, my music playing, my knowledge, my most precious thing...time!
