CURRENT MISSION To get lost in as many cities as possible ABOUT ME I absolutely love to travel and see new places. Tourist sites are cool, but nothing beats getting lost amongst the winding side streets of a city or town. I am an animal lover, and enjoy seeing native wildlife -- or friendly strays who beg for food and cuddles. I am currently fulfilling a life-long dream of working and living in Japan before returning to America and working as an archivist. PHILOSOPHY Make life the best it can be not only for yourself, but for everyone around you.

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
A way to connect to other ALTs and travelers in Japan. I may not always be able to host, but I may be able to...
我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Climbing Mount Olympus. Even if I didn't make it to the top, the memory is a fond one. (sick + asthma... bad combo)
教学、学习、分享
I am always eager to learn. Languages and crafts are especially fun to share. Also history and local traditions/customs that may seem commonplace. Burial practices and related beliefs are especially intriguing.
我能与房东分享的
I know of some good food spots in Tenri and Nara, and also some good sightseeing spots. Keep in mind that I live twenty minutes south of Nara, and over an hour from both Kyoto and Osaka.
我的兴趣
I spend a lot of time reading, playing video games, and spoiling my hamster. History and old archaeological sites are another interest of mine, and I will happily go out of my way to look at piles of rocks that used to be important.
