    Description

    Hi, I'm Tony. I was born in Korea and raised in the U.S.
    I've been living in Japan since 2015.
    I was a very active couchsurfing host before Covid19 but I had to stop hosting because my company had a quite strict policy for meeting people. Now I moved to a new company and also it seems the situation got better. So I reactivated my account and even started ”workaway”.

    I love traveling and I met so many people who were very nice to me.
    I started to host travelers because I thought this is my time to return what i have had.

    To be honest, my place is not like a hotel. Quite hot in the summer, cold in the winter.
    However, you will meet my lovely and friendly cats (Tom and Rose) and planty of space to relax.
    I am often busy working so only thing I could do is just offering you the guest room.
    If these conditions are fine, you are more than welcome to stay at my place.

    I can speak English, japanese, and Korean and learning German and Chinese.
    It would be great if you could help me learning something, doing house chores, or playing with my cats.
    (If you could teach me how to dance swing, I’ll definitely say yes to your request 🪩)

    Although my nationality is Korean, Since I spent lots of time outside of the country and am influenced a lot, i often don't consider myself as Korean much.
    I can't even eat spicy food haha.

    Feel free to contact me at any time.

    Please write “Hakuna Matata!” in the beginning of your request so that i know you read my profile and understand the condition.

    *Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience recently. It would be difficult for me to host if you don't have any references.
