CURRENT MISSION

I hope to see as much of the world as I can before I get too old to enjoy it.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in California near San Francisco. Never wanted to see another country until my parents took me along for a trip to France and Italy. I studied asian history in college and after graduating spent a year realizing that I should probably just move there. I have now lived in Japan for over two years and I'm loving life.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy your youth and don't let it go to waste.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have taken surfers to some Japanese all you can eat all you can drink restaurants, and helped teach them some basic Japanese while they were here. I want to help people find out more about Japanese culture and prove that the American stereotype isn't universal.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went on a 3 month tour with a band after graduating college and we couch surfed from city to city. We never would have been able to afford it if we had stayed in hotels. I also couch surfed Taiwan while my friend was living there.

Interesses

I play a lot of sports but currently I've only been playing soccer. I enjoy art and music and I'm usually up for a night of dancing and drinking.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I am always studying Japanese and Japanese culture. When I have time I try to set up events and last year I taught myself how to DJ. I'm always up for sharing any knowledge I have.
