Description

Hello!
My name is Akiko, and I’m 22 years old. I’ve completed all my university courses and now have some free time before starting my career—so I’m using this opportunity to backpack and explore the world!

My journey is figuring out what happiness means to me and what kind of life feels truly fulfilling. Along the way, I’d love to meet people from different backgrounds, hear their stories, and find out what brings them joy and a sense of satisfaction in their daily lives. I’m excited to immerse myself in different cultures, meet new people, and exchange ideas along the way. If you're open to sharing stories and perspectives, I’d love to connect!　
I also love to have lots of moments where I stumble upon something new and just go, “Wow!”
I love how my perspective expands when I see the world differently, and how learning something new can reveal things I never noticed before.


I have experience in cooking, household tasks, and pet sitting, and I’ve also worked at a cat café, caring for both cats and a capybara as staff! I genuinely enjoy looking after animals and helping out wherever I can. I’m always eager to learn new skills, and I take pride in being reliable and hardworking.

I’m also physically active and happy to take on any tasks you need help with, whether it’s gardening, cleaning, or something new. Even if I don’t have experience in a particular area, I’m a fast learner and always willing to give it my best shot! 😊

I’ll do my best to make this experience enjoyable for both of us and would love to contribute in any way I can. Looking forward to the journey ahead!

By the way, I only send messages to hosts I’d genuinely love to stay with, so if you receive a message from me, please know that it’s sincere!

Best to ALL,
Akiko:)

More details about your skills

I love cooking! If my hosts are interested, I’d love to cook together and exchange our cultures! I’ve been cooking for myself for 7 years, and I truly enjoy it.
I have done the household things since I was 12, so I will manage things even they are unfamiliar.
I had worked as part-time job at a cat & capybara café in Tokyo, so if there’s an opportunity, I’d love to help with pet sitting too!

I’ve been active in sports since elementary school, playing volleyball and practicing Japanese archery through high school, so I’m confident in my physical strength.

I love problem solving too!

I take pride in my strong work ethic, and given the opportunity, I believe I can be a great asset to any project—even ones I haven’t tried before.

I’ll do my best to make this experience enjoyable for both of us!
