Overview
About Me
In my 20s, I had dedicated my life in the tourism industry. I lived and studied for 4 years in Edinburgh, Scotland. Then I took an opportunity to work as a tour guide in Auckland, New Zealand, where I had met amazing people from all over the world, whom I still keep in touch with today.
After coming back to Japan and studying my root, Japan, through achieving the certificate of teaching Japanese, I am ready to live abroad again, in South America.
Currently I am studying Spanish and searching for the next step closer to "home" where my heart desires.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
This is a great way to get to know the local people and the truth about living in a city/town. I would like to hear the real voice from locals and also share my experience of living abroad. I can not have the same experience I would gain from couch surfing if I am staying in a hotel/hostel, although I could have some vital information about the city/town for tourists.
Interests
Throughout the journey aborad, I have found one thing that keeps me centered, focused and peaceful, which is horse back riding. I would like to be close to the nature and study Equine Therapy/Hipotherapy. I am also interested in people and their dreams, and the possibility of turning it into a reality.
