Hello! My name is Masashi Tanaka. I'm originally from Kobe, but I currently reside in the beautiful city of Kyoto. I'm a 24-year-old student with a deep passion for traveling. So far, I've had the pleasure of exploring Southeast Asia, the United States, and Taiwan.😎

I'm a coffee aficionado and an avid drawer, and I absolutely love engaging in delightful conversations. Learning about new cultures and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds truly excites me.

A couple of years ago, I embarked on a two-month backpacking adventure across Southeast Asia. It was during this journey that I discovered the joy of connecting with fellow travelers. However, I realized that I missed out on deeper interactions with the locals. This time around, I'm keen to use this app to forge meaningful connections with the local communities.

Through Couchsurfing, I hope to make new friends and deepen my interactions with local people. At university, I'm immersed in the study of Japanese coffee culture, and I'd love to share insights about food culture with you. Having lived in Kobe and Kyoto for many years, I can offer a unique perspective on what life in Japan is truly like. I also have a passion for cooking, so if we get the chance to spend time together, I'd love for us to share and showcase our culinary traditions.

Looking forward to meeting you!✌️✌️✌️
