CURRENT MISSION

To explore Japan from the inside out

ABOUT ME

I am an easygoing California girl who loves to get out of California and see the world. Traveling and snowboarding are my two passions and once I realized they went perfectly together it changed my life.....I have done a lot of traveling through Europe, Asia, and have lived in New Zealand for a year and a half and recently done a winter season in Niseko, Japan. I am excited to see the rest of Japan and meet as many local Nihonjin as possible!

PHILOSOPHY

live as if you will die tomorrow, learn as if you will live forever
