Thank you for making and posting these videos. I was the youngest in my family born in Kobe in 1962 and went to Marist Brothers in 1966 at the age of 4 (Kindergarden with Mrs. Bruggeman). My sisters went to Stella Maris. I was there till 1973 (5th grade). I have so many memories of my time there going to school from Sannomiya Station to Suma by train.

@heypatio Thanks! It is always great to read appreciation of my father's films and photos. I think my time in Japan was very important for me in learning to think and feel internationally.

I was between six and eleven years old.

I do remember quite a lot from that period in my life.

Where did you spend those ages in your life?

[pirjohelena]

I have probably seen both you and your sisters. I spent three years at Marist Brothers and one year at Stella Maris. Juliana was in my class at Stella Maris.

I spent lots of time in my fathers office on the top floor and it was a surprise to see the building at that angle.
