Several years ago I was doing my master's project in northern Japan and I started to blog. But this was BEFORE there was such a thing. I was writing my Field Notes about the documentary project on Japanese elderly. These notes contained funny anecdotes from my life as a westerner in Japan and were emailed back home to my professors, family and friends. They became a very important part of my day, and I would look forward to the end of the day when I could process all that I encountered doing my project. People began to ask for more and gradually many people were included on the list. It has been seven years since I did that. Those notes will be posted here shortly for you all to read. But recently I was encouraged to start writing again. So we shall see how I do this time.
