Hi! 🦑 Call me Squidz. I'm a sojourner living in Japan, can you tell I'm new to surfing?

I haven't lived in Japan long, I'm still thrilled every day to be experiencing the world outside my home country.

I'm newly married, I love trying new things, and I love to see people in their flow zone and share in others joy. Show me why you love where you live!

I am very easygoing and flexible. 😊 Happy to hang with hosts and do my own thing.

When I return to the US, my husband Logan and I will be happy to host as we can in our van or wherever we live!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in traveling east Asia while I live in Japan. Maybe come stay with me sometime if you wanna see Tohoku and don't mind I work a teachers schedule. I want to exchange culture and make memories with people all over the world. Let's get weird ✨

Music, Movies, and Books

EDM is my favorite music, I'm learning to flow. I love pretty much everything honestly. Punk, jazz, bubblegum anything, riddim, future bass, math rock, bro idc long as it's good. Or bad. Or so bad it's good. I'm not picky.

I love Arrival, Scott Pilgrim VS The World, Shape of Water, Moonrise Kingdom, Princess Mononoke, Superbad, Emperor's New Groove, more to come when I remember what I like because I like everything. It's true, ask my husband.

Fav books are The Time Travelers Wife. Stuff by Kurt Vonnegut, or Isaac Asimov. Japanese fiction.

Teach, Learn, Share

人生は学ぶことが多いです。I will give as much or more than I take. Gratitude is everything ♥️

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation, smiles, consideration, and my bomb ass cooking skills. I love sharing meals with people and making people happy with my food.
