Hey, I'm René from Germany and currently studying abroad in Okinawa for my master thesis in Physics.

I am an open minded person and love to try out all sorts of new things.

At the beginning of my BSc I started to learn ballroom dances as a hobby. It didn't take a long time until I additionally started to take salsa, bachata and kizomba courses.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Since I believe that everyone has to tell an interesting story, I am always eager to meet new people and Couchsurfing is a great possibility for that!

Also, since I am in Japan for one year, I plan to travel around and maybe stay at a few locals.

I would really enjoy showing people around the island of Okinawa. Since I am working during the week, this would mainly be limited on the weekends. Public transport on Okinawa is a bit expensive and inconvenient, so I would recommend staying at a place in or close to Naha on workdays.
