a little bit about me...
|
A music lover in Tokyo, Japan.
I especially dig blues, New Orleans R&B, and classic rock.
Please visit my website:
Apart from Tokyo and its vicinity, I have lived in Los Angeles and New York.
My favorite pastime is to travel, eat, play and listen to music. Some of my favorite places to visit include New Orleans, Korea, Cuba, Mexico, Hong Kong, Miyajima, and Kyoto among many other places. I love to visit new places, meeting new people, eating new food, etc.
