Lives in Hara, Suwa District, Japan
I lived in Tokyo and Harumura for about 10 years, and moved to Harumura permanently in 2017. My hobby is stargazing. I am qualified as a Star Sommelier®. If you wish, I can guide you to the stars that are visible that day, so please let me know. I also love Japanese culture, such as kimono, kabuki, etc. I used to learn Nagauta Shamisen, Shinobue, and Nohkan, and I am currently practicing Tsugaru Shamisen.
