Hello! It's Mari and Ryugo, we are now traveling all over the world. we are rather calm but curious about the world, and happy to share our experiences with people. Ryugo writes about his trips on his website (http://arakakiryugo.com/) We love traveling and meeting new people, new cultures, and new landscapes. Being in love also with the art, we hope to visit museums, galleries, and concerts. Both of us have experience of working in primary and junior-high schools (Mari as an officer, Ryugo as a teacher of art). We like talking and playing with kids. As we have done some times, we are interested in visiting schools to learn about education in foreign countries. Through traveling, we want to know more about the world and make more friends to share adventures and discoveries.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
We think seeing local people is the best way to know about the place we visit. While exchanging cultures and stories with nice hosts/ guests, we want to enjoy the journey.
