Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I plan to travel a lot for the next while and meeting new people is one of the most rewarding experiences of travel.
Music, Movies, and Books
The dark side of life and comedy are interesting; Trainspotting, Twin Peaks, Bukowski, Bob's Burgers, Peep Show....
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Survived motorbike rides in Vietnam and Nepal
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy meeting people who live day-to-day life differently from myself. It's all relative and helps with perspective. In the countries I have visited locals and the people met randomly have been the greatest take-away experiences. I can make tea several different ways and say 'Water' in enough languages. I haven't had access to a kitchen in three weeks and I love to cook. Just saying, I'll make some food ;)
What I Can Share With Hosts
I have spent the last year teaching English in Japan and feel pretty knowledgeable in regards to culture and traveling in Japan. I loved living in Nagoya and would be happy to share tips on Nippon. I am best known for my ability to like having a good time /drink and share stories. I am adventurous and I can easily go with the flow.
My Interests
Travel, culture, photography, eating/drinking
