I'm a curious and open minded person who's interested in travelling and meeting people.

Unfortunately or fortunately I travel often for work and private, leaving little time at home. As a result, I have seemingly few friends and I appear often on hangout.

I never say no to a good walk or a good conversation.

You will rarely see me pulling out my smartphone or exchanging contacts. I miss the time before the internet and people used to talk to each other. Awkward silences won't kill you and it's ok we can't stay in touch. Having said that, I have pen pals.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Because there are so many interesting and crazy people here.

Once I stayed with a couch surfing host who's a satanist and talked to me while playing with a knife. Did I judge him? Absolutely yes. Did I enjoy it? Absolutely not. But hey, that's couch surfing.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

One thing that forever changed my life is visiting Hawaii with my family when I was 7. I knew then that I have to leave Japan and move to Hawaii. When I was 17 I tried to move to Hawaii but ended up in Seattle and fell in love with the city. So I moved to Vancouver to plan my move down to Seattle but I never left Canada and stayed there for 6 years. In short, it's not a waste to take your small kids on a vacation abroad!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

If you speak Italian, you may be forced to speak in Italian with me.

I love cooking using local ingredients I don't know yet and would love to learn new dishes.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can teach you casino strategies, improve your Tinder profile,or solve your IT problems.

You can ask me anything about Japan but it's possible you know much more about the country.
