[Arstan]

Name: Just call me Arstan.

First breath: Summer of '88.

Coming to you from: Canada

Intentions: Not a lot else besides finding one or two folks living over there in the Land of the Rising Sun as friends, and to swap knowledge of things. Bonus points for living in or around Kawasaki.

Why do you want to go to Japan?: I have minimal interest in anime, manga, pop music and so forth. However, I recently started learning Sugino-style Katori Shinto Ryu - it has become something I want to learn to the fullest. I also like Japanese gardens, and am interested in the sights to be seen too in Japan.
