I am originally from Tokyo, and spent a lot of time in London while I was growing up.
Now I live in Yokohama with my family including two kids.

I enjoy meeting people from different parts of the world and although that was my passion, and still is, now I think more about giving my kids the exposure to different people from different parts of the world.

I like travelling, not just outside of Japan but within Japan as well, and can provide some tips if you are coming to Japan.

Other passions include tie-dyeing, cooking, and exploring small alleys either walking or by bike, and finding nice restaurants and cafes.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite band of all time is a Japanese band called Pizzicato Five. They make me feel merry.
Books, I read randomly depending on what I am into, and then cinema, I guess my favourite is Woody Allen.
I also like Tora-san series from Japan.
