I'm Japanese, 31 and live in turin, Italy. I have a 2 years and 1/2 son who is growing up fast, too fast. I teach and translate and since it's a very mental job I was looking for something to keep my hands full and my mind empty, so I started to knit.

suede, shiina ringo, radiohead, bossanova, keith jarret, saint saens, george winston, michael hedges, nirvana, the doors

murakami haruki, niccolò ammaniti, simone de beauviour (and, I confess, sophie kinsella and anthony bourdain)

wong kar wai (everything), Ghibli animation movies (kiki delivery service in particular), flashdance.

grey's anatomy, desperate housewives and nip and tuck.

knitting, learning to sew.
