Name: Heather
Coming to you from: USA - Florida
First Breath: 10/24/1981
Intentions and whatnot: I am just here to meet people that share a passion for Japan and Japanese culture. I am totally enthralled with ancient Japan (that shaped the civilization we know and love now) and still feel there is a place in this world for the principles of bushido, even if the warrior/samurai class is no longer in effect (so to speak)...
Why do you want to go to Japan? My first reason for wanting to relocate to Japan was to teach the english language over there. Secondary reason being to brush up on my Japanese language skills (which I am slowly picking up on) and to immerse myself in the culture.
I joined this forum 2 years ago, found out about it at an anime con I attended and lost the site when my computer died... Found it again browsing on my phone and here I am, lol...
In my free time I dedicate myself to reading (mostly research for a novel I am attempting to piece together), writing, studying Japanese, drawing (mostly nature and landscapes or abstract pieces) and painting, and playing with my puppy.
My siblings have taken to calling me Hachi (which they justify as I am a Scorpio, the eighth sign of the zodiac), though I despise it since they started after we started reading Nana, lol...
