Currently
After living in Nara and Kyoto for 10 months in 2022-2023, attending the NWU Nara Women’s University as an exchange student, I am currently in Kyoto for a long term stay under a cultural activities visa.
I have entered the International Mokuhanga School with Richard STEINER sensei for intensively studying 木版画 Mokuhanga, Japanese woodblock printing, and have entered a 書道 Shodō, Japanese calligraphy classes in Nara with KITAYAMA Suishin sensei.
I started traveling to Japan in 2016 and these travels, 7 so far plus the residency of 10 months, have deeply impacted my life. Visits to museums, temples, shrines and gardens as well as admiring the beauty of nature are my favorite activities in my free time.
