Hi. I'm Tomohiro Ogawa.
Welcome to my profile page. Now, I'll introduce myself.

I grew up in Shiga prefecture which is located next to Kyoto. However, now I live in Kyoto to learn economics in the university.

I’m so outgoing and bright, and always smiling you can imagine from my pictures. I value Japanese mind and will try to be humble.

First, I love football. I have played it for 16 years. If I host you, I would like to enjoy talking with it anyway. If you are not interested in it, ignore what I saying about it,haha.

Second, I want to meet someone who I have met before and enjoy talking with. Even though we are embarassed each other at first, we are able to do heart to heart talking lastly, and that's why I like to do it.

Third, I cannot express myself such this superficial introduction. We should talk in person.

When you send me request, please read below notice.

I won't host someone who
just want to stay only because you can stay free of charge
don't want to know Japanese spirit, such as polite attitude, not lazy, help each other
don't want to know Kyoto
are arrogant, insolence
come to only take picture for Instagram
don't know the virtue of Couchsurfing.

I think that if you are above, you should stay at hotel.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

There are two reasons for this: want to experience what I cannot do it in the guide tour that firms offer, pay it forward.

When I used this app to travel in Philippines with my friend who let me know this app, I could go through the real journey( I don't know the "real"haha). Our couchsurfer host guided us to every part of Philipines, and let us play so local activities. Then I think that if we use the mandate Japanese company tour( it is also good though), we couldn't experience it at all. Our host asked us what we wanted to do or food we wanted to eat,etc.., anyway she was so very super kind to us. I was astonished at her kindness and hospitable mind. I got really happy to know and experience the great mind that everyone may have while a lot of crimes is occuring every day all over the world.

Second reason is that meybe related first one, I became aware that I have to do like my host in Philipines, and I decided to pay it foward. Although I have no bed for someone I will host, I want to host you as much as possible.
