I am one of the many foreign English teachers here in Japan. Unlike them, I don't pretend to not know what I'm doing; I really don't know what I'm doing. But I am also eager to learn so any opportunity I can get to immerse myself in the culture and learn new things I take with a youthful joy that belies my true age.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Inexpensive travel during my tenure as a teacher.

兴趣

I like playing video games. I enjoy fighting games the most, although I'm not very good at them. I figured coming to Japan and playing at game centers would improve my skills but the closest one to me is an hour away and driving that far just to get my ass kicked is only marginally worth it.

音乐、电影和书籍

My musical tastes change by the week. Right now, I'm feeling Taro Hakase. Last week it was Kendrick Lamar. Before that Streetlight Manifesto. Who knows what it'll be a week from now.

Lately I've been reading a lot of interviews with game developers. Jeff Pobst and the folks at Hidden Path as well as some Japanese developers like ZUN and Yoshirou Kimura. I'd like to get in the game development industry myself so their insight is valuable.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I learned to sing Tsugaru Kaikyou Fuyugeshiki. I can't hit the notes quite as well Ishikawa Sayuri but I think my performance is spirited.

教，学，和分享

Stand, Sit, Move

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Until I meet them and know what it is they're looking for, I can't say for sure. If nothing else, I can share a story and some laughs. I think that's good enough for a start.
