I am Japanese student studying in Lille, France. I have guided foreign tourists as goodwill guide for 2 years(2012-2014), majoring engineering in University in Kyoto. I am not so talkative but like to have a talk.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the backpackers spirit. Or I just like to listen someone's story in different world. I may owe being on Couchsurfing to the experiences as good will guide in Kyoto.
I believe that communicating with different country people having different background through travel is necessary for sharing new value in this society, where various nationalities easily interact each other via internet:D

Interests

Nature, Science, Culture... and Coffee. Even bad coffee is better than no coffee:P And I love whisky with all my heart. For sports, I play football still 13 yrs. I have been into snowboarding for these several years.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have passed sommer holiday in 2015 working in a Japanese classic style hotel(Ryokan) in a countryside. I have grown only in a very large city and my parents have not thought me so many things about our culture in detail, so with this reason this summer vacation was very good experience to learn and understand the way of thinking of generations who created current our country images.

Teach, Learn, Share

Things concerned with Japan. Programming. Cooking some French and Japanese food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't know it is true or not but my friend called me a good teacher of snowboarding before:D I love it and may be enough good to give you some tips.
