**I currently reside in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, but asking for information about Myanmar is welcome! To add some info here (as of 21/Nov/2023), it has been highly caution even for locals to travel within Myanmar for past 1-2 months due to the wide-spread battles between civil defense force and military. Make sure you stick with main cities and tourist areas (Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay). Even the regional cities/towns like Sagaing, Kalaw, Sittwe etc. are no longer advised to travel. Avoid getting nearby the military and police posts during your visit, as guerilla attacks by people's defence forces can be taken place anytime. Check the below media for updated news written in English. Safe journey !

Hello ! Bonjour ! Konnichiwa ! Mingalarpar ! Mambo !

I'm an travel addict from Yangon,Myanmar though I was born in Japan and spent my childhood there. Eversince we've settled here at Yangon. Being a student of social studies, part-time Japanese Interpreter, I'm greatly sociable used to be a lot talkative :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Backpacking for 5 years consecutively, CS is the best environment to find out how local people are looked like and how the culture really works in reality. Never trust medias and propaganda btw

Interests

Language, Food etc etc.
Teach me language and I will try to be proficient as much as I can. (Able to introduce myself in 10+ language lol)

Music, Movies, and Books

Fond of Japanese musics and books due to influence of my childhood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cried out loud because of Iranian old stranger helped selflessly for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Any Burmese and Japanese stuffs except cooking complex dishes
