CURRENT MISSION

Travel more, do more and enjoy more of what this world has to offer...

ABOUT ME

I'm active and talkative. I'm always exploring new places and fields in search of the next interesting thing to write about, but I also enjoy slow time. Laughter and conversation are a daily must, and, even better when accompanied by good wine. There's always time for conversation, even when there isn't...

PHILOSOPHY

Keep your mind open, even in the hardest of times...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I sometimes miss the chance to reply to requests due to my writing and producing work - this was especially so after Japan's earthquake and tsunami in 2011. However, please don't hesitate to ask for a catch-up or a place to stay. I can be busy, but will help out when I can!

I am happy to show you around and let you stay if I have time to be a real host. I have been in Tokyo for over ten years, so I know the town pretty well and can help out with advice on most things to do with Tokyo and Japan.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed on many couches over the years, not officially part of this site but rather in the spirit of sharing. I have had many people stay on my couch too. It's always great to meet new people and share new stories. I'm back after a turbulent few months of writing about Japan's recent hardships which I continue to cover. Low reply rate has been due to a national disaster - so if our times match you are welcome to stay and talk anything Tokyo or the world with me...

音乐、电影和书籍

I am making a movie...

I like to read and watch films. My reading is pretty extensive and includes philosophy - contemporary and historical - fiction and non-fiction. From Agamben to Murakami.
Movies - I like to be immersed in other worlds. Something that stirs emotions - whether it's laughing, happiness or stress..
Music plays a very important role in my life, not always, but essential

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sleeping in a 'hostel' on the edge of the oldest jungle in SE Asia and waking up to a biomass of movement that had been a wall when I fell asleep, now the life's work of wriggling, hungry, cute geckos.
