CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I moved to the UK in September 2015 after living in beautiful Tokushima on Shikoku as a JET Programme participant for 3 years. I completed my MA at SOAS in London, studying Language Documentation and Description, and have recently begun my PhD in Linguistics (SOAS). I love learning languages and travelling is my great passion.

Música, películas y libros

I love the Harry Potter books and anything by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Jane Austen, John Steinbeck, and Pablo Neruda. Also, nothing beats a good magical realism, historical fiction, or dystopian novel.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I think every place has some pretty amazing sights to be discovered, but seeing Stonehenge in England made the archeology nerd in me freak out, and seeing the sunrise from the top of Mt. Fuji was one of the most incredible experiences I've had thus far :D
