I’m Koichiro Hida. If I translate it literally, my name “Koichiro” (航一郎) means “go overseas”, and I’m actually living according to it. Deeper meaning is “Beyond something that limits me”. I’m active, curious to something new, and not bound by a stereotype.

I lived in Chiba now for study, but now I’m having one year off for internship.

I love basketball, both playing and watching. I was a member of a basketball club as I was junior and high school student.

I also love nature. When I go back to my home in Nagano, definitely I take a walk in nature or trek.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
