I'm a Canadian with a Japanese middle name who is often mistaken for a Peruvian. Most of my recent years have been spent moving around studying spanish, teaching english or working in something bicycle related. I currently live/work in Italy as a hiking tour guide and am looking to explore all that I can in my time off.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet likeminded, positive people who can give a local's perspective and good company while on the road. And once I have a couch, to be able to give this to others!

So that we can all spend less money and enjoy more good company.
