ABOUT ME

I was studying Japanese religion,culture,folklore and literature in University.
especially Im fascinated Youkai(It is kind of fairy in Japan)and Kaidan(Japanese ghost story)
So I want to know not only Japan but also an overseas ghost story.
I traveled almost all area of Japan. Please ask me if you want to know the traditional Japanese landscape.

And I like to think about people's hometown. How the landscape have a effect to people's mind. I love to feel them landscape behind them words. I love to think about nostalgic feeling.

Lastly, Sorry for my poor English skill. I hated to study English when I was young. Probably its resistance to globalization. haha
Silly me... But I try to study English now. So Excuse that if I couldn't speak well.
And I dont know modern culture.(kind of V-key or Animation something like that.) Its my weak point!

PHILOSOPHY

I always respect life of the others person.
Whan I am taking in train,I am looking to over the window.
There are a lot of light in the house.
So I feel it is mean that the one light is one person's life.

There are a lot of human.
and the person have own life.
