About Me

Hello,
I' m a 20 years old girl who are interested in world culture and languages. I have one older brother. I'm 153 cm tall so I think I can fit into any size of beds ;)

I am a friendly, optimistic and tidy person.

Since September of 2016, I'm learning psychology in Hungary, Budapest for 1 year. This is my first time to visit Europe and live without my parents.

When I was 5 years old, my mother, brother and I were living in New Zealand, Pongaroa village for 9 months. Unfortunately, I remember few thing about my life in New Zealand but thanks to the experience, my English pronunciation is quite good.

I was learning ballet for about 10 years and baton twirling for 3 years. Now, in Budapest, I'm in Hungarian dance club! As you can imagine, I love dancing.

Also, I'm interested in cooking, so I'm so happy if you make me some meal of your country!

These days, I'm crazy about fashion. I'm always looking for some cool vintage clothing shops plus nice cafes. I wanna know your recommendation!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As you know, Japan is really really far from Europe. It takes time and also money to visit Europe from Japan.

However, I study in Hungary for 1 year from this September, so this must be a great opportunity to travel around Europe!!

How can I go to many places with less money and in fun way?

This is it! The best answer is couch surfing!

I can stay cheaper, know local people’s life and exchange culture through couch surfing. This is like killing two birds with one stone!
