Hi Blogitse. I don't mind the questions:) Thanks for visiting my shop and letting me know which is your favorite.

I moved to Japan to be able to work and do my Art at the same time. I teach English Part-time.
I am not sure how long I will stay. My husband and I have been here about seven years.

more questions...
How was it for you in the beginning, how long did it take to get 'in'?
Do you feel all the time that you're foreigners?
Do you or both speak Japanese?

Hi again,

I was 21 when I first came to Japan. It was very different from any other country I had visited in Europe and Britain. Japan had no resemblance to what I knew.

This is our third time to live in Japan. This time it feels right.

I am always a foreigner here, but I like that feeling. I usually handle any business that is done in a foreign language. It just works out that way.

I actually adopted Sputnik as a kitten in 1998 when I was living in Mexico. She made the long trip with me to Japan on July 25, 2004. It took me about 6 months to plan the logistics of bringing her from Mexico to Japan. Since I had to fly via the U.S. on Mexicana Airlines and Korean Airlines, that meant 4 countries and two airlines would need to approve her transport. There were many details to keep track of for each country and airline. After 6 months of stressful planning, 16 hours of two airline flights and layovers, She made it to Japan safely! Korean Air allowed her to fly with me as my carry-on luggage, which was a relief for me. No worrying about whether she was scared or left at the Los Angeles airport! I didn't give her any tranquilizer to sedate her. Yet, she was quiet the entire flight and went unnoticed by other passengers. I h
