Description
Hello!
My name is Aika Matsui, and I’m 20 years old from Japan🇯🇵
I’m currently university student, and I’m excited to join Workaway to learn, share, and experience new cultures.
I love spending time with children and have volunteered at an after-school program before. I’m also good at cleaning and often cook Japanese dishes as I live alone. My hobbies include playing basketball—I was a player from elementary school to high school and still enjoy casual games with friends. Recently, I’ve also started practicing the guitar.I’m a friendly, hardworking, and adaptable person, and I’m always eager to help with any tasks.
Although I’m not very fluent in English, I’m eager to improve my language skills by interacting with people from different backgrounds. I also look forward to sharing Japanese culture with others through food, traditions, and stories.
I’d love to contribute to your project and learn from you. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more about me!
Looking forward to hearing from you!
