Message (Self Introduction)
During the 13 and a half years I lived in Europe (England, France, Spain) and 20 years in Egypt (during which I studied abroad in Israel for 1 and a half years), I visited various neighboring countries and learned about cross-cultural exchange and history. Currently, I am studying the history and culture of my wonderful hometown of Japan, Tohoku, and Iwate from the perspective of comparative civilization and culture with fresh eyes. Would you like to take a “learning journey” with us?
We have also planned and interpreted (in English) for many European and American scholars' lectures, so please leave it to us to interpret for cultural lectures, etc.!
