About Me

######## DO NOT SEND ME A REQUEST VIA MESSAGE. HOSTIONG FEMALES ONLY.########

★ABOUT HOSTING
Since I work 6days per week as a barmaid, I am quite busy on weekend.
Basically I have a day off on Tuesday, so if your request starts from Tuesday, it would have more possibly to be accepted.

You don’t need to write a long message. I personally don’t like copied and pasted messages.
Simple friendly message with some information about your plan for the stay should work well. Of course don’t forget to put enough information on your profile which makes me trust you.
And honestly you don’t have to read this page in advance, because when we met we can talk:)
But don’t forget to read “My Home” section!

★ABOUT ME
A Japanese who used to live in London (Stoke Newington) for less 2 years.
Very earnest / honest / serious person.
As a guest / host, I try to be friendly / talkative / organized / punctual / clean;)
Well... I think my references well describe me, so please check it out!

★CURRENT MISSION
Learning whiskeys, and bartender’s skills

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna meet someone who has different background from me, then I can learn new values.
In Portugal and London in 2018, I had some amazing experiences as a guest, then I feel that I really want to continue hosting again! Because I really appreciate my ex-hosts, but I can’t give the same hospitality back to them. So, what I can do is to host someone and help her as much as I can, then to circulat hospitality. My favorite Japanese proverb is “情けはひとのためならず (Nasake ha hitono tame narazu)”, this means “helping others is not for the others. Actually it is for myself, and it helps myself.” So hosting someone means helping myself.
