Hello!! My name is Shiori and I am from Japan.
I grow up in Japan and I graduated from university in the United States. I study Business Economics and Psychology and I am planning to take a PhD in Psychology and be a researcher in the future.

I like traveling around the world, hiking, swimming, reading, photography, going to a museum, learning history and culture, anything new to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people from different countries and learn, share and exchange each culture, our thoughts, and experience!!

I think that the most amazing thing about traveling is meeting the local people there and making friends!! This makes traveling more amazing than expected :)
