About the Site:

This site was created in 2007 when I was accepted to Toyo University for a year of Language study through the ISEP (International Student Exchange Program) and my Home University: The University of Tennessee: Knoxville. It is my hope that this site will be of use to anyone at the University and beyond who has any interest in the Nation, culture and language of Japan.

This site is in Unicode in an effort for more browsers to be able to view any Japanese I decide to write. If your browser doesn't put up text for the links at the top or a word like this one: 日本、then your browser doesn't support Japanese, but don't let that detour you from reading on because there are still a great deal of stories that will be shared. I do hope however that anyone with Japanese language experience will find my inserts funny, insightful or simply good practice.

どうぞよろしくお願いします！
