My 20s in Japan

Driven by a love of learning, eating, driving and anime, among other things...

I draw inspiration from Makoto Shinkai, Naoko Yamada (and Kyoto Animation) and Studio Ghibli as well as other YouTubers such as Abroad In Japan, CDawgVA, Trash Taste, RealLifeLore, WendoverProductions, JunsKitchen, Anthony Padilla, Binging with Babish, Joshua Weissman, Nick DiGiovanni, Alvin Zhou, Sorekara Travel, and Life of Riza (among plenty of others). Other sources of inspiration come from artists like HEIZE, TK from 凛として時雨, all the students I've encountered in Japan in my time as an English teacher, and all the experiences shared with me by people I've encountered all across the Japanese countryside, both Japanese people and foreigners alike.
