We are a Japanese couple with an 5-year-old daughter. We are based in Ama within in Oki island and that's where we may accept couchsurfers.

Each person can find own definition of meaningfulness to his/her life. (Jun)
Love yourself and love people around you. Your goal doesn't have to be big, but it should eventually lead to the love for all people in the world. (Sayaka)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have hosted quite a few CSers in Japan and we enjoyed time with each of them. Jun experienced being a guest CSer in Hong Kong and Taiwan, Sayaka in Vietnam, and two of us together in Brunei and the Philippines, and learned some tips to be a good host. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

We can show Japanese cooking, and would love to learn your style of cooking. But even if you are not interested in cooking, it's not a big deal. We believe there are a lot to learn from each other naturally when people meet and share time.
