Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because couchsurfers are open-minded. 10 yrs ago when I was travelling by myself without knowing couchsurfing, I wished to have a friend for each country. Now I do :)
Music, Movies, and Books
Music Balkan music and instrumental live music always fascinats me. Jazz music such as SOIL and PIMP SESSIONS and nujabes. I like playing piano as I was learning it when I was younger. Now I started to learn violin too! ;) Book Haruki Murakami, Oscar wild, Paulo coelho are the books recently I read. Movie The Budapest hotel, Step up, Spirited away, Up, Inception, The time travellers wife, The notebook, The reader, Forrest gump etc.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I was swimming in the holly Ganges river at Varanasi and Indian people took a picture of me. I might be on his Facebook.. Soon after I got fever and couldn't even walk. But still it was an amazing experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
Painting I started to paint during the lockdown. I like to paint by thinking of someone or memories. I'm currently teaching painting too as it became my another passion beside dancing. Dancing I quit IT company in Japan after 3 yrs of hard working, a week after I went in Istanbul to learn bellydance by professional Turkish oriental dancers because I just could not keep it as my hobby. Afterwards I became a dance teacher in Tokyo and now in Berlin :) Expressing myself through the dance is amazing. I especially like the moment to dance with live music on the stage. As I live in Berlin, I got to like techno music too. Sport I'm a quite sporty girl. I used to go surfing, play golf and tennis. Sometimes I like hiking and biking. My first bike trip experience was 70km across the sea from Shikoku to Hiroshima called Shimanami-kaido in Japan. It was simply awesome landscapes and I would totally recommend it.
