About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy living in the world

ABOUT ME

I was born in Himeji, Hyogo. My university is in Osaka and I lived in Osaka for few years. I love my hometown and I hope you like here. I like to travel, talk with local people and learn each culture. I'm interesting in people. "Why are they doing that?" "Why did they do this?" "Why?"...even the answer is "I don't know...it's because..."

PHILOSOPHY

一期一会š ichigoichie
Treasure every meeting as an experience that will never come again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sorry that I cannot offer the couch to you now, but I can show you my hometown:)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went to Belgium as a couchsurfer at first time. Honestly I felt nervous about staying other family's house because I was just only 20 or so and alone, and I look so young like teenager outside of my coutry. My host, Belgium couple welcomed me very warmly and we spent a lot of time together, and I felt like I am a member of their family (they have a daughter who is same age as me). I enjoyed a lot of beauty of Belgium and I had a great time in Belgium because of my host. I cannot forget this experience and I can never thank them enough.
