Description

Hello! My name is Kotoha.

I am 21 years old and was born and raised in Nagoya, Japan. I am currently a third-year university student studying nursing. I decided to become a nurse because I want to do work that helps and supports others. At the moment, I am taking a break from university until September 2026 so that I can go abroad and gain many different experiences.

After graduating from high school, I worked in various jobs and traveled to many places in Japan, as well as Thailand and Taiwan. I really enjoy talking with people, and I hope to meet people with diverse values and backgrounds, and broaden my perspective through these experiences.

I love learning new things and taking on challenges. My hobbies include outdoor activities, sports, eating good food, and listening to music. I am also very interested in world history. I enjoy meeting people and sharing stories, as it helps me expand my own values and way of thinking.

During these six months, I would like to have many experiences that I cannot have in Japan. I would be very happy if I could work and learn together with you, while also contributing my skills and helping in any way I can.

More details about your skills

I am not fluent in English, but I have studied English since I was young, so I can communicate if people speak slowly. I am good at reading and writing, but listening and speaking are my weaker skills. However, I am very motivated to improve them through real communication.

I really love interacting with people, and I especially enjoy spending time with children. I often play with children in my neighborhood. I worked part-time at a cram school for two years, where I talked and worked with children of many different ages.

I have been swimming since I was three years old and have competed in national-level competitions in Japan. I also enjoy taking care of animals. I have a toy poodle at home and love spending time with dogs.

What else ...

This will be my first time using Workaway, but I am very excited to meet many different people over the next six months. If you accept me, I will do my best and work with full effort and enthusiasm.
