Introduction | I've been studying Japanese for many years. I love the challenge of it because I will never, ever be "done." |
Interests | As pertains to this blog: Japanese culture, history and language. Ukelele (specifically Hawaiian born artist Jake Shimabukuro), Ukiyo-e, Oshinbo, Ooku (both manga), Japanese cuisine. |
Favorite Movies | Anything by Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai, Stray Dog, Yojimbo) Also Sajit Ray, Wes Anderson, Wim Wenders, ...too many to name |
Favorite Music | Right now? Am in love with Jake Shimabukuro's music. A truly gifted, truly awesome (in the real sense of that word) musician. Watch him on You Tube playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" on the ukelele. You've never seen that instrument played like that, I promise. |
Favorite Books | Twain, Shakespeare, Any Human Heart, Grapes of Wrath, Oishinbo, the list goes on. |
