CURRENT MISSION

Keep rockin japan til 2010, then roadtrip the US.

ABOUT ME

I live in a tiny village called Yugawa, north of Aizu-Wakamatsu city at the time being. The only point of interest is an ancient temple thats over 1300 years old. Yugawa is between two of the major cities of the Aizu basin, Wakamatsu and Kitakata. It's also pretty close to Mt. Bandai, which is good for hiking in the spring/summer and great for snowboarding/skiing in the winter. I live in small house by myself, two rooms, and sufficient beddings and whatnot to host 1-3 people.
