Nice to meet you! I'm Shin from Japan. I just came back to Japan from wonderful traveling in Europe. But I haven't finished my traveling. Now I'm exploring Japan, my county!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like exchange cultures each other with cooking Japanese foods, talking calmly in the house not in Hostel. And of course I want to meet new local people who live in there. It's the best way to explore new world.
