Japan Visit





I am going on a two week trip partly to visit these three wonderful people, the Nakamuras (the the rest of their family). My number will be: 08010322676 during my visit. Incoming calls are free, but outgoing calls are pretty expensive. Keep in mind that this will be Japan time, so please don't call at crazy hours.

One New Project



So it's been almost nine months since the time that I lived in Japan, and I've nearly recovered! Consequently, I decided to start a small book project in order to present blogs from my time in Ubuyama in a book form (http://www.lulu.com/content/797724). It is still in very rough form as I do not have the proper book-making software, etc., but it has been a fun project and I hope to do more! The link about features the photography in black & white and thus is much cheaper (there are also color and hardcover versions for sale too). Any profits on the book will go directly to me (unfortunately, the color versions cost a good deal (300%) more to produce... so I may just have to make a separate, shorter photo book with higher resolution photos from my trip.

Another thing that is happening soon is my visit back to Japan and Kumamoto. I will get so see all the kiddies again and some old friends! I am very excited about it.
