About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel, and learn, to explore and to enjoy life traveling with my boyfriend Ryan.

ABOUT ME

Just about to leave Japan after 2 years of working as an English teacher, learning Japanese and exploring. I love Martial Arts, Scuba-diving, learning about languages and cultures and going on adventures! I'll be traveling with my boyfriend Ryan from April 2017.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be traveling for an undetermined amount of time. I'm happy to meet up with people, but can unfortunately not host anyone since we will not have a home. I'm hoping that I can give something back to the kind people that host and meet us on our travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed and hosted a couple of times, and I still keep in touch with these people. I've met some amazing people through CS!

Interests

Martial arts, mainly muay thai, muay boran, kickboxing and boxing.

Photography, writing, diving, rock climbing, exploring, listening to music, watching a good film, reading a good book.
