Description

Hi! I’m Haruka from Japan. I’m 30 years old. 
I'm excited to meet new people, discover beautiful scenery and a new side of myself.

I love traveling, surfing, animals, gardening, chasing sunsets and being in nature. I also enjoy playing different sports, just walking and doing exercise. Sometimes like to make sweets at home and share them with others.

Sharing time with others and helping each other fills my heart. Also, spending time with animals makes me happy, they heal me and I'm able to care for them with love. That's why I've been working as a dog groomer lately.

I'm friendly, honest, and thoughtful.
I look forward to living, working and learning together with warmth and respect :)

Physical and mental health is the most important thing to me.
