About Me

A Japanese woman who is full of wonder!
My name is Tomoko and I have a lot of experiences overseas.
My hometown is in Nanao, Ishikawa where is far away from big cities you visit, so I have not had any guests yet. If I moved to towns and am capable to host someone, I will love that like my previous hosts did for me!!
I’ll let you know!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make thousands of friends all over the world.
It is a very good way to make this world small and safe if we are connected to each other, don’t you think!?
Also, I am very curious why you guys chose the nations if you live there as foreigners. I might ask you a lot of questions especially when you live in Japan far from your own nations!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Mt. Chili in Korea on the pouring rainy day!! It was really scary! I am acrophobia, so I was more scared when we all came down!!!! But I made it!

I flew to the states from Japan, stayed a night on the plane arrived at LAX in the following morning. The officer at the US customs asked me the reason why I came to USA and said to him,
‘I would go to Bruno Mars concert tonight and leave the states tomorrow morning!’
He was so surprised, but smiled at and asked me to sing a song in front of him!!!
And I did, ‘When I see your face~~~🎶’

Also I went out for a road trip in the states without any specific plans on my mind, but it turned very memorable, amazing, fantastic, fun, great and beautiful trip by myself ever!

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages; Japanese, Korean and Mandarin Chinese
I have tried some European languages, but way too difficult, so let them sleep till the time to be ripe...

Music instruments: the piano and the saxophone
I have played both but I am not good enough...

Share: my knowledge!
If you have any questions about Japan, I will teach you if I already knew and research for you if do not.
Also if you need help with anything, let me know.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge, language skills, teach you how to cook Japanese food and etc.!!
