I'm from England. I moved to Japan in 1981.

I spend a lot of time in Tokyo, but my home is actually in the mountains of Nagano Prefecture. Until 2025, I lived by the sea in Kanagawa Prefecture.

Over the course of 45 years in Japan, I have become interested in ways to make the most of the present moment, which is, after all, the only opportunity available to us to do anything. This "now-how" idea is evident in Japan's culture of tea, where host and guest focus on the value of each unique encounter. Now-how is an idea that seems especially important in an ever-changing, unpredictable world. We need to be resourceful in order to build resilient communities, and various aspects of traditional Japanese culture nurture these very qualities.

In my spare time I would like to explore different aspects of Japan, and revenue from this site will help me produce new content for you.
