Japan Travel and Culture Writer

My goals are to become a better writer and educator. I want to inform, persuade, and touch others with my words. For over twenty-five years, Japan has been my home and base from which I explore the world. I am a tea enthusiast, hot spring addict, animal lover, snowshoe athlete, environmental activist, professor, and travel and culture writer. Please read my scribbles and join me on my journey around this fantastic planet.
