    Last summer, I met a young Japanese volunteer who was teaching Japanese language in our country. He became my good friend and aside from the Japanese language, he also taught me how to do Shodo. I was really overwhelmed with this kind of writing experience. Shodo taught me self-concentration & self-reflection as well.It was more than just calligraphy, it is actually about a different kind of Japanese experience.

    When he went back to Japan, he gave me a Kanji guide book (for elementary school) and he told me that the book will be my Shodo teacher from that day on.

    My Shodo (and Japanese language) teacher is only 19 years old, but I really admire his dedication in sharing Japanese culture & tradition to foreigners like me. We are very lucky to meet people like him and Miura.

    Arigatou gozaimasu!

    Best thing: I met my Japanese boyfriend last January. The worst thing ... he broke up with me a few days ago.
