Why are you interested in Japan?
I’m interested in learning more about Japan’s rich culture, especially its music. I also know that some American music (jazz) has recently become very popular there. I’m hoping to make a living playing music, and I’m interested in the possibility of someday living in Japan.
What are you most looking forward to experiencing/learning in Japan?
The language. I hope to become fluent enough to hold conversations on my own.
What is your favorite sushi or Japanese food?
I like anything with salmon in it, raw or otherwise!
Please share a metaphysical quote or idea that will help you in preparation for and participation on this program:
We must form perfect models in thought and look at them continually, or we shall never carve them out in grand and noble lives. Let unselfishness, goodness, mercy, justice, health, holiness, love – the kingdom of heaven – reign within us, and sin, disease, and death will diminish until they finally disappear.
