Hi everyone. My name is Sho from Japan, currently majoring in international relations at a university in Niigata, Japan. I’m currently planning a three-week backpacking trip to Europe with a friend of mine and hoping to meet some nice people and find some local hosts to have us. I’m really open minded and sociable and like learning new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I found this place would offer so many beneficial meet-ups and local life experience.

Interests

My primary interest is to learn languages, history, and culture. The reason why I like them stems chiefly from my personal pleasure of learning cultural differences through many cross-cultural encounters I've ever had in my life.

• culture
• architecture
• traveling
• music
• sports
• history
• languages
• language exchange
• food
• nature

Music, Movies, and Books

I usually enjoy listening to all kinds of music. I don’t tend to have particular preferences and bête noires. Whatever comes to me can be my favorite and added to my playlist!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can’t pick up one! I don’t believe I have ACCOMPLISHED something amazing by myself. My life has been full of so many wonderful things that are created by my friends and people I happened to meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have studied Japanese teaching methodology in my college, so I’d be glad to help you out with your Japanese if you are learning it. I am really interested in appreciating the value of local architecture and historic scenes in your country, so I hope you will show me around some nice spots!

Countries I’ve Visited
