I live in Osaka,Japan for a long time. My apartment is very convenient location, close to a station and it's easy to get to downtown"Umeda area" on foot. Besides, there are many restaurants and bars nearby. My job was a researcher and mechanical engineer. Going bar hopping give me good time. Not essential, but I prefer travelers who can drink. ※attention ①If you can't even pay USD20 for your orders when we go out for dinner and drinks together, you're not welcome. ②I decline travelers who use Couchsurfing many times in one country.It means they focus on saving money too much. The moment I find out you plan to stay at a host's home multiple times in Japan, I'll ask you to leave my place. ③If you have friends in Osaka, Hyogo or Kyoto, you should ask them to stay at their places. ④Travelers who prioritise spending time with other non Japanese travellers more than hosts or locals, I'll asked you to leave when I become aware of it. Their purpose is not to stay at a host's home to know about Japanese life, but simply to save on accommodation costs. ⑤I don't accept a request for a night. Please put the code "Naniwa" in your request, tell me about your travel schedule,not only Japan and why did you choose Japan in your travel. I would prefer my guests to spend their money on restaurants, shopping or experiences in Osaka instead of accommodation fee. To be honest, from a local's point of view, travelers who don't spend money are just a nuisance. 遠方から大阪に来ている日本の方でもOK
