CURRENT MISSION

Acquire a taste for kaoliang instead of feeling sick from it.

ABOUT ME

I'm a first generation American of Japanese and Indian descent, lived all around the States, and currently reside in Taipei, Taiwan.

I spend my days teaching in the evening, but when I'm not working, I spend most weekdays with friends shooting pool, playing dominoes, cards, watching a movie or having drinks at the local bars.

If you have time, come through town!

PHILOSOPHY

Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

-Walt Whitman
