{About us}
Hi. My name is Hina. I'm a yoga teacher, personal trainer, and teaching gymnastics to children. I also run my curry shop and sometimes hold some events temporarily.
I used to travel around the world last year and I've experienced many homestays as a guest.
I love meeting people who grew up in different cultures and learn something through sharing a same place :)
I live with my mom Ayako. She's super warm, kind, and helpful person.
Feel free to ask us anything :)
