I am currently living in Japan as an English ALT in Kamisu-shi. This is my first time living abroad and it is an excellent opportunity to see new places, try new things, and meet interesting people. I hope to explore Japan and learn more about Japanese culture and people during my time here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I created a profile on Couchsurfing because I think it might be an excellent way to meet new people. Staying in a hotel is boring- staying with interesting people who want to share their culture is exciting.

Interests

I like to explore and take long walks. I also enjoy running, hiking, and eating a lot of delicious food. The Japanese food I've had so far has been great, and I want to try more it. Aside from travel interests, I am a musician, so I love to play and listen to music.
