I grew up all over the place, never living anywhere longer than 5 years. Most recently from Ohio in the United States, I'm living in Japan with the JET Program in a tiny but worthwhile town called Kuroishi.

*Side note: I also go by Essa, a not-straightforward derivative of Jessica.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

I heard about this opportunity from my friend, and I've met a few of her guests who were couchsurfers- looking forward to meeting people!

In particular, I like photography, sports, discussions (probably not sports discussions), food always.

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

Since childhood I've loved exploring, meeting new people, and learning about different cultures! My parents moved a lot and always welcomed people to our home to share about themselves over a home-cooked meal. I think that hospitality and cultural exchange are beautiful, essential parts of life. People are amazing, and people are what make our world interesting, unique, and yes, amazing.
