Music is my solace, drawing calms my mind, swimming frees my soul.I am a quiet homebody with a straightforward personality (ISTJ). Sometimes my words unknowingly offend others but that is really not my intention.Other than working and studying the Japanese language, I spend most of my time on anime, Shogi, Jpop and swimming. Occasionally, I draw. I enjoy going to temples and shrines to make spiritual connections. I am interested in all things related to Japan.
