Japanese writer. I have been backpacking since I was young and visited Bangladesh in 2024, my 83rd country. Couchsurfing has been part of my travel history. I'm not in Japan much, but if you have any questions about Japan, don't hesitate to ask me.
I've lived in Naples, Italy, and I'm fussy about coffee and pizza, but apart from that, I also love "Saizeriya" in Japan. Let's drink cheap wine at Saizeriya in Tokyo!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lived-in over 15 hostels in several European countries and Australia as a volunteer staff and worked with locals when I was 42 to 45. The initial aim was to save money on accommodation, but as a result I met wonderful people and learned new languages, opening my new door. I wrote about that unique experience and published it in Japan.
My current goal is to publish an English version of one of my books about Spanish pilgrimage which I have previously published in Japan, in an English-speaking world.
