I'm traveling now. Lived in Taiwan for 6 months, from 2022 Sep to 2023 Feb, to study Chinese. Then after finishing studying, start to travel. Vietnam, India, Pakistan, and now in Armenia. I'm gonna back in Japan maybe in the middle of April.

Around 2015-2016, I often hosted in Tokyo. It was wonderful experiences for me. I spent a lot of fun time with people from foreign countries and had good conversations with them. I think travelers have lively energy, because traveling is a quite special moment in our life. I really like to touch such kind of energy, and to share each culture and background.

I moved from Tokyo, now living in Kyoto, the beautiful ancient city.
I haven't hosted for a long time. But, I'm thinking I'm gonna start to host again from May of 2023. If you're interested especially in art and spirituality, I may show you around the deeper Kyoto.
Also, I'm in Butoh(舞踏) community and have many Butoh dancer friends. I can introduce good workshops and performances to you.

I'm a friendly and open-minded person.
I'm a body therapist, a chef, and a producer, working as a freelancer in Japan.
I produce many kinds of events or workshops about art, culture, meditation, and body consciousness. After facilitating these events, I often dish up my cooking. Food appearing can change the space dramatically, calmer, and more loving. I think it's a good way to make peaceful people relationships.
My activities are held under the project name "Imaginary Cafe"

I'm also a body therapist. I've learned many kinds of bodyworks, like qi-gong, Japanese martial arts, massage way, how to observe body and mind, Alexander technique, etc. Mixing these techniques, I create my original massage. It's completely different from the normal one. It's very meditative and sometimes like dancing slowly, because it's influenced by Butoh as well. It's a way for listening to our body deeply and realizing what the body really wants.

I'm eagerly practicing the meditation of Buddhism(2011〜2017 Vipassana meditation, 2017〜now Zen meditation). The everything on my life is based on meditation. I'm exploring the question like "Who am I?", "What is human beings?", "What is life?" through it.
