What's up couchsurfing! I'm currently a freshman collage student in NY who's majoring in Illustration. It's certainly a common recognition that people here love to interact with foreign cultures, and I'm one of them too! I really like to absorb new knowledges about foreign cultures because it's something that cultivates my humanity and curiosity. I definitely enjoy traveling to other countries in the world, and was always helped by hospitality of local people. Through those experiences, the simple idea came out from my mind; it would be very nice to also be hosting to offer a relaxing environment for those travelers who are looking for it.
I'm here to offer you my home, that is also going to be your home!

Just giving some more information about my lifetime, I was originally born in Hawaii, and was raised in Japan until I became 14 years old. Then I moved back to my 2nd home, Hawaii to study abroad. I graduated the middle school and high school in Oahu, Hawaii, and now I'm here!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Because of the history of my life, I'm really familiar with both Japanese and Hawaiian cultural hubs, especially Japanese 'otaku' culture; language, food, anime, manga, and etc. If you're looking for a host who's able to share these topics, you found a right person!
I am a fluent Japanese speaker & creative writer, and thus I'm very happy to teach you Japanese if you're interested, too!
Also, as a student in an art collage, I work on artistic creations as my hobby for the whole life, such as mainly drawing and painting both traditionally and digitally. It will definitely be fun to have conversation and share stuff if you are a person who's into any type of art. Photography, Communicate design, Performance art...I'm interested in every fields, literally every fields of art!
