I am a 28 year old Japanese American that has been wwoofing and traveling around Japan since I graduated college. I worked as a aurora tour guide, translator, outdoor camp leader, chef, etc and like to try out new things.
Currently with a fiance traveling around the world to take wedding photos in different places.

I like to travel, play sports, watch tv, internet surf, eat and try out new things.

I consider myself a friendly person that has an unique mindset due to how I was raised in the U.S while maintaining some Japanese culture within the household.

I love to meet new people and get to know about them and their culture.

Philosophy:
"Good judgement comes from experience but experience comes from bad judgement. "
therefore don`t be afraid to make mistakes because some mistake has more value then success

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friend told me this is a great way to meet up with people from areas I have never been to and enjoy it to the fullest.

Currently with a fiance to travel around the world to take wedding photos.
