自我介绍

I author the One Green Bicycle website which is all about Japan Travels and Culture along with tips for simple living. One big part of my life is helping people connect into the Japanese culture through actionable ideas, travels, and being intentional. I love being able to help people going to Japan with their travel questions and itineraries. So I use One Green Bicycle as a tool for education and connecting cultures together travel. I will also soon be coming out with a few OGB courses for pretravel planning, so tourists can travel in Japan NOT feeling and acting like a tourist. And for travelers in Japan to be able to use their short amount of time to the fullest by being prepared. I love renting from locals because they deserve income more than my other option of extended stay hotels which is why I love Airbnb. On top of that, I get to enjoy hosts' creativity with treehouses, geodesic domes, and yurts. I love to try new things wherever I am. I learned scuba diving while I was in Florida, needle felting in colorado, and am always piqued to learn more. I love any water activities and am adventurous when it comes to getting up close and personal with animals. I have traveled quite a bit and always tend to enjoy the local cuisine wherever I am. As a guest: I hope I'd be a good fit for you too: a clean and quiet guest, interested in learning about local life and culture, sharing in responsibility to keep things clean, etc. Silly bits about me: I love whales but have never seen one close up. I hope to someday take the Oriental Express and Transiberian Railway. I love to raise plants but they often die for some reason. Red wine. Dogs over cats. Learning Japanese to visit friends and some churches. Thanks and I hope to meet you!
