CURRENT MISSION

To see more of the world - either by going directly to it or hosting it in my flat.

ABOUT ME

I've been living in the Kanazawa area for 20 years. I came here on a scholarship to study economics at Kanazawa University for two years.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've hosted several couchsurfers at my flat and showed them around Kanazawa. I also couchsurfed in Okinawa.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All of them positive. I've met a lot of nice people through CS and hope to meet many more.

Intereses

Calligraphy, vegetable gardening on my modest deck, scuba diving, and weight training. I am also a volunteer first aid instructor for my local Red Cross chapter in Japan.
