I'm Jon originally from Yorkshire in the north of England. I have been travelling across this beautiful world working, studying and backpacking. since I was 20 years old and have based myself in 5 different countries in the last 7 years. I love to share stories, play music and make new friends. I studied foreign languages and can speak Japanese and German

I am living next to a train station 1 hour from Kyoto. I am accepting guests who want to be in close proximity to the city yet experience a less trodden side of Japan, the country life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends, because a house is not a motel
