ABOUT ME
Hi. I'm a Japanese femele who loves trips all over the world, family, and friends.
I used to go to a highschool in Tennessee, U.S.A..
My English isn't fluent coz' it's been long time since I came back from the states...
I believe myself as a basically serious, straight going person and def not a selfish or judgemental one.
PHILOSOPHY
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Abroad study in the U.S.A., Backpacking trips, Bycycling trips all over Japan doing rough camps, Teaching Scuba diving, Experience of living girls dorm for 7 years.
These teach me when I should be strong, weak and how I should keep appropriate distance with ppl. Of course, I'm still learning them.
