Hello everyone! I’m originally from Mongolia and have been living in Japan for the past eight years, with the last four in Tokyo. I just finished my master’s degree and am taking a gap year to travel throughout 2025.

In September and October, I’ll be exploring Southeast Asia, mainly Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. If you’ll be around during that time, I’d love to meet up and connect! I’ll be back in Tokyo in March 2026. Looking forward to meeting people!
