CURRENT MISSION

Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present
The sky is not the limit!

ABOUT ME

I'm adventurous, ambitious, and don't like to miss out on anything.

I'm a Research Engineer working for a large technology company.

I'm half Japanese and have spent most of my time growing up in Berkshire and in Bath.

I've travelled around the world: across Asia, Australasia, Europe, and small part of the US. I would love to visit Africa and South America next!

I love to keep fit so I do a lot of running with the running club at the University, cycling, and bootcamps.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's a box of chocolates - you don't know what you're going to get.

Everyone should laugh at least once a day!

What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean.

My powers are ordinary. Only my application is my success.

No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I provide a relaxed place to stay in Bath, and have organised a few events: Hiking, Running, Drinks, Theme Parks, short walking tours in the city and around the outskirts by car (Chedder, Wells, Glastonbury, Cotswolds).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've not yet couch surfed, but have hosted several times - see references. I've met up with amazing CS people through the events I've organised and being part of other events. I've also meet CS people form various cities across Europe and Asia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many - 2009-2010 travelling around Asia and Australasia, and long weekends around Europe. The most recent and crazy thing I've done was the Marathon du Medoc in Bordeaux, which involved running in a costume 26 miles whilst drinking red wine!
