About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Think about how to conserve nature without disturbing common welfare, and spread Japanese traditional culture.

ABOUT ME

I think I have a gentle and aspirational character, and love nature (outdoor activities). I am a Master student studying about Environmental Policy, and practicing and performing Japanese sword fight action (such as in Kill Bill, or Last Samurai).
I would like to broaden my horizon through seeing many people.

PHILOSOPHY

Try hard to become what you wanna be, and enjoy the process.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming(snorkeling) with humpback whales in Tonga!
In the deep blue world, I met a humpback whale family!
I think the father whale was over 15m (50 feet), and the calf was with the mother whale. It was fantastic!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a Master student studying environmental policy, and my research topic is "biodiversity offset".
Thus, I think I am a little familiar with ecological issues more than general person.
I am also practicing (sometimes teaching) Japanese sword fight (Samurai) actions (such as in Kill Bill, or Last Samurai), thus if people are interested in Japanese culture, I might be able to provide some cultural experience.
