I’m Miya. Currently a first year PhD student at Kashiwa in Chiba🥜🌊🌏🔬🥼
I’ve been living in Tokyo from 2016 to 2018, then I went on an exchange in Zurich for a whole year. That’s when I started couchsurfing!! :D Life is an adventure and I’m on an endless quest. I’ve lived in Beijing for 8 years, Hong Kong for 10, Zurich for 1 and Tokyo for almost 7 so far. Where am I gonna end up later? 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe 🇦🇶? 😂 just going with the flow :)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I like the concept of sharing without asking for return.
Being a tourist is fun, but not as fun as living the life of a local. I like couchsurfing since it allows me to meet crazy, kind and extraordinary people that I wouldn’t normally meet in a routine life.

Interessen

Too many...mainly music and sports. I’m also into space, science and spirituality ;) I love crazy talks about aliens and robots and...idk😂 Always up for something new ^^
