  • Description

    My name is Ryuichi and I'm from North Carolina in the U.S.. I am a Navy Veteran and was fortunate enough to travel abroad for all of 2020 in SE Asia, Taiwan, Turkey, and Ukraine.

    I have volunteered in the past as an ESL instructor for Burmese immigrants in my hometown and am also seeking opportunities to work with my hands while abroad.

    Language exchange is important to me as I believe learning the native language enhances the traveling experience.

    I prefer slow travel as opposed to rapid fire sightseeing so I am interested in volunteer opportunities that allow me to get to know the locals and the location.

    I enjoy hiking, taking photos, making/editing videos, and going to concerts. I got my OWD certification in Indonesia and AOWD in Koh Tao, Thailand and am always excited to go diving. I also used to play ultimate frisbee so if you want to throw a disc with me, we can do that or I can teach you!
