I’m Miya. Currently a 3rd year PhD student at Kashiwa in Chiba🥜🌊🌏🔬🥼 I’ve been living in Tokyo from 2016 to 2018, then I went on an exchange in Zurich for a whole year. That’s when I started couchsurfing!! :D Life is an adventure and I’m on an endless quest. I’ve lived in Beijing for 8 years, Hong Kong for 10, Zurich for 1 and Tokyo for almost 9 so far. Where am I gonna end up later? 🤷🏻♀️ maybe 🇦🇶? 😂 just going with the flow :)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I like the concept of sharing without asking for return. Being a tourist is fun, but not as fun as living the life of a local. I like couchsurfing since it allows me to meet crazy, kind and extraordinary people that I wouldn’t normally meet in a routine life.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I love singing and playing guitar, ukulele, piano and flute :) I listen to all types of music in all kinds of languages. Chinese, Cantonese, English, Arabic, Mongolian, Tibetan, French... Singer I like include the Lumineers, AnnenMayKantereit, Radwimps, James Bay, Jason Mraz, Cody Simpson, Queen, Eagles, Bob Marley... Movies: Into the Wild, Mr Nobody, Forest Gump, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Les Choristes... Books: Three Bodies, Moment in Peking, Twilight (read it 10 times when I was in primary school😂)...
