This is the first “lost item” of humans that I saw in forests near the residency. There were no other human belongings around it, so it captured my attention. A lost item should return back to the original owner or someone else who can take […]
When I see crystal raindrops at the edge of a branch or a leaf, I feel beautiful. It is because they shine under the sun. It is because they can be seen only under a certain environmental condition. And it is because they reflect various […]
Maitolaituri is an only cafe in Enonkoski. It used to be a supermarket but was renovated last year. They serve daily lunch, patisseries, cakes, coffee and tea. I tried a Finnish bread called Perunarieska made from potatoes, and another national bread called Karjalanpiirakka made from […]

I was born and raised in Nagoya, Japan. When I was a little girl, I was very curious about nature and people. My love for the sea and foreign countries made me think about environmental and social issues in the world. At university, I studied International Development in Tokyo, Japan and Brighton, England, thinking about what I can do to make a peaceful world.
My first career began as an interpreter/translator and a coordinator between てthe Japanese Government and foreign Governments at Ministry of Defense in Japan.
While working there, I couldn’t help but express what I see and feel through photos, writing, and all around creative types. After leaving the job, I studied photography and drawing in Denmark to regain my inspiration. The experience drove me into a creative field.
Now through my writing, photographies, and artworks, I am eager to let people notice the sustainable life is beautiful and enjoyable.
If you have any inquiry about me, my works, and collaboration with me, I’m happy to hear from you.
Address: Somewhere in the world. Sometimes in Japan.
Mobile: Sorry…my mobile is broken.
