Moi!
My name is Mizuki. I am a 30-year-old Japanese woman, born and raised in Kochi City, Japan, which is known for its beautiful rivers, mountains, and unique local cuisine :)
I previously lived and worked in the US as a Japanese culture instractor at a university for the past two years, where I organized more than 100 workshops and non-credit language classes. (It was a wonderful experience working abroad!) Now that I have completed my job term, I decided to explore the culture, nature, and life in Finland, a country I fell in love with during my visit about five years ago..... It was only a month stay, but this time, I’m staying for a longer period, as I got a visa that allows me to stay and work in Finland for a year! I’m excited to have the opportunity to learn more about the country and meet new people. I started leaning Finnish language before my departure, but WOW, it's soooo difficult! ;) I’m learning slowly, but I’m doing my best!
I really enjoy a quiet, nature-focused countryside lifestyle, and I love learning about different cultures and ways of life. I thrive on having meaningful and fun conversations, listening to people’s life stories, cooking together, and walking in the forest. I’m also a big cat person!
I don’t drink alcohol or smoke, but I love sweet stuff! ;) I usually drink water, so I’m so happy that Finland has such amazing water quality. No allegies and food restriction.
My friends would describe me as positive, attentive, and responsible.
I have traveld to Italy(6months), Australia(1year), Norway, Sweden, Finland,Thai, Slovenia, Korea, Taiwan and the US. In Italy and Australia, I mainly spent my time as a WWOOFer (WWOOF is a farming-focused version of HelpX), so I am accustomed to homestaying.
I look forward meeting you. Thank you!Centres d’intérêt
