ABOUT ME

[What I do]
I am currently living in Tokyo, Japan.
I work for an architecture design firm.

[Where I'm from]
I am originally from Tokyo, Japan & San Francisco, USA.
I'm half Japanese and half American.
I speak Japanese and English.

[What traveling means to me]
I'm an Architect...So that means I travel a lot to see buildings, structures, landmarks, parks, bridges, etc....all over the world.
Traveling and experiencing many places is essential for my profession.

It is also very important for me to see the city or town in its local point of view, so that I can have a more deep understanding of it.

[CS experience]
Even though my account is new, I'm actually not new in Couch Surfing.
I've used couch surfing and stayed at other peoples homes several times before. And I've also attended a couch surfing gathering in Paris.
I've also used Airbnb several times as well.

[Habits, Manners]
I don't smoke or do any illegal drugs.
I do like to go out to drink, or to go to a club and have a good time sometimes, but not always. I try not to get too drunk, which usually is fine.
I will try to be polite as much as I can, and clean up myself.

[Interests]
I'm interested in everything!...to be more precise, I can always find something interesting about any topic. I'm open minded, and I like to have meaningful and fun conversations/discussions.

I LOVE MOVIES. I watch so many.
I could always have a fun conversation about good films.
