About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Okinawa until May, and will soon travel to Kyoto, Mt. Yoshino, Taiwan, and Tokyo. My home base is Berlin.

I'm friendly and social, with passion for fashion, music and dancing (both socially in the clubs and as performance). I make clothing/costumes, electronic music and teach and perform dance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet interesting, friendly people while traveling and save money on hotels... because I'm an artist - unfortunately not making much money yet! hope this will change soon :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

moved to China all alone to teach English... moved to Berlin all alone to pursue dance career... and then eventually started producing electronic music! it's more than one thing... I like to constantly improve myself through expanding my experiences and talents :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, German (basics), dance (contemporary, modern, ballet, hip-hop, improvisation) and basics in music production with ableton live :)

I love to learn the language of the places I visit! even if just the basics or a few phrases to get around :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

good company, interesting conversation, language exchange, inspirational dancing!

I am NOT expecting/wanting to share my sexuality... unfortunately, I've had negative experiences with male hosts expecting and pushing this... sex is NOT my intention in using this website. NO means NO! for this reason, I'm hesitant to accept male guests and be hosted by males...

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cambodia, China, Croatia, France, Italy, Uruguay, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

China, Germany, Japan, Turkey, United States
