Travelling
Description
Hello, my name is Miyu Uchino, and I'm a traveler from Japan, currently on a leave of absence from university.
I'm planning to travel all over the world starting in April 2025, looking for new experiences, cultural exchange, and opportunities to contribute through volunteering.
I will go to a language school for a month in the Philippines to improve my English.
I have experience working in a restaurant, so I am comfortable with cooking, cleaning, and customer service. I also taught math and science at a private tutoring school, so I enjoy communicating with children.
My English is not perfect yet, but I always try my best to communicate and keep learning.
I'm interested in various volunteer opportunities, such as teaching, farming, and taking care of animals. I love trying local food and would love to learn about different cooking styles and ways of life.
As a person, I'm friendly, flexible, and always open to new experiences. I love meeting people from different backgrounds, sharing stories, and learning from them. I'm also a quick learner and always try to be as helpful as possible.
Looking forward to connecting with amazing hosts and making unforgettable memories!

I was nervous at first because it was my first time volunteering at a school, but I quickly realized there was nothing to worry about. Yogendra and his family were always there for me. They are so kind, warm, and welcoming. I originally planned to stay for just two weeks, but Bhaktapur felt so comfortable and… read more
