Hi! I'm Tomo 👋 I'm probably one of the two or three active surfers in Okayama, so if you need a host or just want to hang out, feel free to message me. I'm always happy to answer questions, exchange stories, or discuss something completely unnecessary for three hours. Also, Japanese sweets are amazing so lets try it out🍡 --- 👇️Okay, so short introduction of myself I was born in the countryside but moved to Tokyo because of university. After graduation, I worked at a recruitment company for 6 months, quit, then flew to travel around Africa and the Middle East. I had a GREAT GREAT GREAT time there, and now my goal is to continue traveling when I'm still young. Now I co-founded a company with my friend and moved to Okayama. Hopefully this brings me enough money to go abroad🤑 --- 👇️What I like - Books - Movies - Plays/Theaters - Basketball - Art in general - Photography - Walking around cities or random neighborhoods - Talking to people - Thinking about stuff - Being sarcastic - Queen (music band) I probably have other things I like. I don't know. It's kind of hard to know exactly what you like. When there isn't much you hate, there also isn't much you strongly love. Because liking something is relative and you only notice how much something matters to you when it's compared to everything else. Ahh, here I go again. This pretty much sums up what kind of person I am lol. --- 👇Traveling I usually travel slowly and stay in one country for a while rather than rushing through many places. What I enjoy most is getting closer to everyday local life. Small restaurants, random neighborhoods, quiet streets, long walks, conversations with people I randomly met... Those tend to stay in my memory longer. I also really enjoy conversations while traveling. Fun stupid conversations, deep conversations, discussions about life, politics, science, culture, pretty much anything. Oh, but I also go to super touristy spots too. Touristy spots are touristy for a reason. Gotta check them out ✅ --- 👇Hosting I enjoy hosting for pretty much the same reasons. Meeting people with completely different perspectives and sharing everyday life together. I'm usually happy to go get food together, cook something at home, walk around the city, have long conversations, or just relax and do our own things. I'm pretty flexible. Also, I like both light conversations and deeper discussions, so we can talk about random nonsense or something serious at 2am lol (I've had some real crazy guests haha). My room is small but relatively clean. Average Japanese room I would say. Do not expect an American size super large house haha. --- Yup, that's basically it. Looking forward to seeing you!! 😁 Feel free to follow/text me✌️ Instagram: tomo_chi.52 WhatsApp: +81 7085140502 Oh, and friendly reminder. Please don't hit me, stab me, and throw me off the balcony😊

I always cruise on the Seto Inland Sea area by my boat. Sometimes operating drone machine to take areal movie. My main work is psychological counselor on my boat （＾＾♪ I was a bank clerk until 14 years ago. And, I studied clinical psychology at university after retirement.
