I am interested in Japan. Not because of anime/manga etc. but because of its culture, art, landscape, and history. I like talking about nature, The Big Picture, art, food, and science. I spend my time practicing physical therapy and I enjoy helping people recover from injury and illness by using exercise as medicine. I also like to exercise and spend a lot of time hiking, backpacking, wrestling, Brazilian JiuJitsu, yoga, and weight training. I like to garden and preserve food (this year I grew purple corn and made tortillas!) and be outside.
