CURRENT MISSION

Hi! I am currently looking to Travel around Japan with my beautiful girlfriend Emma. We are going to Tokyo and want to also visit many other cities in April and May 2015. Emma spent a year in Japan teaching English but this is my first time here. We are looking to stay in interesting places and meet exciting people. We are both artists and love Japanese art and culture and wish to explore the wonders that Japan has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I want to see the world and be inspired by all the beautiful things in it.

PHILOSOPHY

Give as much as you can but take only what you need.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I am in London I can host but until then I want to crowd surf.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had great crowd surfing experiences, especially on an inflatable boat to 'Beck' doing a cover of Beyounce's 'Crazy in Love' at Reading Festival when i was about 17, and then people at school were like 'we saw you on TV' and I was like '....Yeeeaaahh'

I have couch surfed in the USA when I first moved to New York and again when I went to California. I met some really nice people that have remained friends with me even years later. I have hosted couch surfers before in a warehouse art gallery I used to run in East London, this was always a fun and sometimes random experience!
