After a 4- 5 year hiatus and finally deciding to pay for membership sigh .. I have returned begrudgingly.

I'm aware and also hope you are aware that * coucsurfing is not a dating app, or a free hotel/tour guide . I am a human being with experiences and if all you do when we first meet or talk is ask for recommendations, I'm sorry but you need google not me?

I'm here because I wanna talk or hangout sometimes with many varied people of different backgrounds and experiences.
I try to understand philosophy and sometimes what makes the world go round I guess .aren't we all?

If you are a traveler ,
Please use some empathy for the locals and before you tell me your crazy bucket list which I may try and help with depending on factors., Lets stop and consider what the whole group or parties involved may enjoy or chill with or or hanging out or talking. And not a butler to your whims. 😂
If I travel , I have done the same. Even helped clean a guys rooftop garden once. .

----
What I do :
I will message and Interact with people regardless of race, religion, gender or age . If you treat people differently because of such factors, we might not get along .
And I always see someone doing such so. Ya , Gratitude and Respect goes a long way 👍.

Background:
I'm not from Japan and brought up elsewhere. Currently 10 year + veteran of Japan.I don't mind meeting open minded , considerate, fun loving mindful travelers and locals alike.

Might be abit blunt ( so I don't expect to be everyone friend ) and been a nice guy most my life but recently just tired of being stepped on as the world isn't meant for kind ppl sometimes So I give you my apologies if I am straightforward , speak my mind, and avoid doing things because I don't want to and it doesn't bring my any joy.

Note regarding communication
*****
Please also understand I am neither your Japanese or English teacher but your possible friend. If you get stuff wrong , I may feel inclined to help and chime in but it is not my obligation.

If you are a Japanese speaker and our communication in English is failing or just doesn't seem to be working ... , I WILL communicate with you in Japanese and I don't necessarily enjoy communicating in Japanese . please Do understand It is not Rude (for some odd reason I've been told this once by a younger inexperienced surfer , mainly because they didnt want to admit their faults , inability too communicate properly or etc.
It was unfortunate.

Ofcourse,
I will however initially try to talk with you in English,my mother tongue/ language that I have used socially since birth and in all my academic Career .

And if still communication seems difficult,native English speaker or not , we can just go our different ways. We don't all have to be friends I guess.

I think that's about it. .

Musica, film e libri

Lots and lots !
Love music and i keep up with the most recent movie debuts and trends .

Love movies as well so usually up-to-date .

AlThough I try not to go to a Japanese cinema as they are about 1200-1800 yen ? Back home it was cheaper...but maybe that was decades ago ... Hahah I'll wait till my movies come out on vhs or on beta. 😂
