About Me

****** I am currently overseas from Nov. 2018 till Feb 2019.

I am a Japanese teacher, working in Australia. I have being a home stay host in Japan for several years hosting people from all over the world. I like to emerge myself to the countries's lifestyle when I travel and not just being a tourist. Couch surfing have gave me the opportunity to do this by getting to know the locals and learn about the countries culture and customs! I am very open-minded, friendly , easy going and clean :)
