Japanese People in Berlin

As a part of my semester project, I'm doing an illustrated reportage about Japanese people who work in Berlin! I'm interested in people in all different fields and trades, people with various backgrounds and spectacular or not-so-spectacular stories, people who can give me an insight into life as a Japanese person in Berlin. Do you know anyone? Or are YOU a Japanese person working in Berlin? If you do/are -- drop me a line at horibe (at) gmail.com! I would appreciate any piece of info -- thanks!

Back from Japan and Tall People

I'm back! Japan (Hokkaido, Tokyo, Kyoto) with G and his parents was awesome!

Hokkaido was still snowy when we got there

Even construction sites were cute in Japan

Hardcore cherry blossom viewing marathon in Tokyo

Cutest ancient terra cotta figures (haniwa) ever!

Nighttime cherry blossom viewing in Kyoto
(despite the deceptively serene-looking photo, there were about 64 billion people around us at the time)

Anyway, we're settling back into our normal life and I actually have a ton of things to draw about, so I will start catching up on comics and drawings...!
