ABOUT ME

I live with my husband and one son. I have three sons.
Two of them have got married. I have two grandsons.
I teach children at home, Japanese, math and English.
I like travelling, onsen, watching movies, reading books,and I've been reading picture books to children in the library as a volunteer.
When I was 21, I was chosen as a member of Aichi Youth Goodwill mission. and I had an opportunity to visit South East Asia, Austraila and New Zealand, and had a chance to homestay. That's a start to have interest in foreign countries.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is limited. Keep looking and don't settle.
I want to be happy, and I'd like to make the other people happy as mch as possible.

音乐、电影和书籍

I like picture books. My recent favorite one is "Miss Rumphius" by Barbara Cooney. And because of this book I knew a girl in New York and finally I went to see her to America and stayed with her and her boyfriend.
I love to listen to various kind of music. but I can't play any instrument.
I like movies and drama very much, which is based on the true story etc.
Good movies and books makes me feel to go visit those countries.

Actually he wanted to do. At the counter the staff asked me , how many people? Will you?......Why not, and I did.
