I AM STRAIGHT (Just to prevent misunderstanding)

Hello! こんにちは！Bonjour!
I've lived in Japan for 17 years, 3 years in the States. I'm enthusiastic at cultural learning and talking with people from different backgrounds. Also, I'm struggling to speak many languages as possible to communicate well with people all around the world, and I would be so delightful if you teach me some language of yours.
My dream is to make friends and visit countries all around the world, and I think every rencontre with someone is a miracle/
I often guide my foreign friends in Japan, and they call me Mr.Google for my knowledge

I'll adjust to the host's schedule, but I'd really appreciate it if we could spend some time together.
I think I'm adaptable to any culture and enjoy experiencing the local way of life. There is no preferences for food, I just enjoy everything. I’m a big fan of wine though!
I might be not that talkative, but I'm keen to have conversations!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To deeply immerse myself to local life/ must be better than ordinary sightseeing!

I visited France last winter, and the visit was nothing but magnifique. I had a chance to enjoy a party with local students, and I found that interaction with locals is the best way to have a real experience and fantastic trip.
I really do want to have an experience by a completely different way from a simple sightseeing, and I'm looking forward to talking with you!!!
