Description
Hello everybody, I'm Salome! I'm planning on going to Japan for a WHV for the beginning of the 2025 snow season. My plan (ideally) would be to start up north, in Hokkaido and slowly make my way down south to finish in Okinawa.
I'm a gardener/landscaper by trade and love nature and the outdoors. I'm also pretty active, always out and about doing things like skiing, rock climbing, hiking, free diving or spearfishing (to list a few haha). I'm pretty easy-going and also do enjoy some quiet time. I would love to meet like minded people who are keen to explore and go on adventures! -
