CURRENT MISSION

Travel around Europe!

ABOUT ME

I've always enjoyed traveling! It's part of who I am. All my life I had to travel between the U.S. and Japan (more specifically, between New York and Tokyo), so as I am older now I can't really live a sedentary life, so I feel like I'm always on the move. I really like being in the nature, like in a forest or by a lake or something because I've always lived in a big city. But that doesn't mean I don't like the city life, that's the best for me in the end I suppose! Besides that, well, I'm a pretty chill guy and I am open minded to all sorts of things, and when I travel I'm always eager to try to things (food, adventures) and to meet new people and get to know them. Oh, and I am very punctual usually so you can count on me when it comes to time.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the moment, cherish the past, and expect a great future! I guess.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new but I love the idea and want to start participating!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have heard a lot of great stories from my friend, Jordan. She makes it sound awesome! I'm new at this so I have no experience yet, but I'm eager to explore.

Interests

Traveling, obviously. Watching movies, listening to Music, adventuring around with my bicycle, you know, the usual. I also enjoy taking pictures of people and beautiful scenery. So when I travel I take many photos. Now because I'm living in Europe I try to travel as much as possible to see the world more, take nice photos, discover new music, food, and cultures, and above all meet new people.:)
