About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To increase my knowledge of different cultures and learn what other people have to offer.

ABOUT ME

I'm a thinker plain and simple. I'm a very outspoken person and at times a little too blunt. I enjoy life, love walking outside to gaze at the beauty of nature. I enjoy reading tons of books, and if I were to list all the books I have read I'd be here too long. And I like to learn something new. Learning is enjoyable for me.

PHILOSOPHY

~It is not the destination but the journey that is important.~

Movies I like: Last Samurai, Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, How To Train Your Dragon, Avatar, and Predator

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've toured around all of Tokyo and Nagoya. The most interesting of the two places would have to be Tokyo, because of the high energy of the cities and night life, but Nagoya is a wonderful place as well because of the quietness of life. Which we all need from time to time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can invest the knowledge I have to anyone willing to listen.
