ABOUT ME

I'm an ordinary Japanese who works for web designing but decide to settle in UK to live with my partner last year. Mainly do some micro scale of designing for Japanese people or a company but my main interest is children education. I used to do some programming workshops for kids with an interesting software called "Viscuit(http://www.viscuit.com/)".
very interested in difference between cultural background, countries and environment.

PHILOSOPHY

-Nothing is wrong
-way of thinking differ from person to person

like this quote "Spoonful of sugar makes medicine go down" by Mary Poppins

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In Japan : basically coffee and drink but brought some CSers to fantastic local places. But only one time had host a poor Swedish girl who was stuck in snow during her cycling. joined some CS events in Tokyo and met wonderful friends.

Outside of Japan : had a couple of couch-surf experiences which was very nice and trigger to engage CS more. My husband often host people at our flat so I host them indirectly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch-surfed twice. one is with my friend in Sweden and the other one is with my husband in North Wales. I got brilliant experiences both in there through CS witch I've never known before. Having a travel like local is great and sometimes I could get very local information which never on guidebook.
I could meet many nice friends through CS. I was wondering there's some common sense among the CS despite people are from different countries.

Música, películas y libros

Music:started Hard Rock when I was in high school like normal person but I'm 32 I don't discriminate music anymore. often to use some online music services and radio app and enjoy easy listening of All kinds of Music. (Rock,Jazz,Electric,World,Classic...depends on my mood) Because My husband is crazy about classic, I often go to BBC Prom every year.

Films:I often watch films but often fall asleep in complex arty films...My favorite film I used to love is the "Mary Poppins", when I was a child. My worst film is "Zero Dark Thirty". I hate it you know why.

Books:prefer to read Nonfiction books but sadly I'm a slow reader...Recently trying to read English books as well from "funny stories for 6 years old" to "Meat and two Veg"
