I’m Takenari Yamamoto. It’s a little difficult for some foreigners to call my name so please call me ‘Take’.

I was born in Kyoto and grew up there. I’m belonging to faculty of global studies at the University. I have studied abroad to Vancouver, Canada, and I learn linguistic in Japanese university.

I like playing tennis, traveling and taking photo.

Now I’m traveling around Europe from August 16 to September 17. I’m looking forward to you guys in Europe!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna enjoy travel more by communicating with local people. I think it is a little difficult to know the local life in the place I travel because I am just traveler. Couchsurfing makes me realize the local aspects and tis country. I am on Couchsurfing to know the country I travel very well.

Interests

I like travel. I traveled south east Asia twice, Shanghai and now traveling around Europe. Travel makes me realize a lot of things or cultures. My worlds spreads!!

I like taking photos. I use EOS kiss x9 for a year. My skill is still low, but I’m trying to improve. Photo is one of the best way to share my travel with others.

I like tennis. I play it when I was 13 years old. I also like watching it.
