NOTICE

I SUSPENDED HOSTING for parenting. I will resume hosting after my baby gets bigger and understand what we say.
I moved to KAIZUKA city, neighbor to Izumisano city in Osaka.
I need coordinate with my wife, so last-minute request not welcomed.

ABOUT ME

I like traveling. I often use low cost airplane and guesthouse.
I like to plan things in detail to maximize my time but in the meantime I try to be flexible in plans depending on the situation.

I work at the Kansai international airport in Osaka. The nature of my work, I am familiar with the airline schedule. So adding your flight number is helpful for understanding your travel plan.

PHILOSOPHY

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile. -Albert Einstein-

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My place is about 1 hour away from central Osaka area by train. If you stay or visit near the Kansai airport we can hang-out or have tea.

I want guests to be independent to some extent, that is they can plan and act by themselves. Of course I'm happy to help you but DON'T expect I'll be your tour guide. I like quiet environment and nature than city life so if you like to hike maybe we can go together.

I DON'T drink alchohol.
If you love to drink and have a party till the night, I'm not the right person to stay with.

When I have an early(morning) shift on the following day, I expect you to leave my house together(around 6am). I'm sorry for inconvenience. Please ask me the working shift if you care about it.

If you really like to stay at my place, send me rather personalized CS request.
Please check out the "My Home" info as well. I decline most of the messages which seem to be COPY-AND-PASTED or not reading my profile.
