Hello everyone, it has been a long time. I have decided to use this blog only for documenting my travels. My next destination will be Greece and Turkey and I will document my initial travel plan and then update with actual field information.

New Apt Same Neighborhood

I have found a new apartment. I will be living with four others: two Japanese, one British national and one person yet unknown. The room I am staying in is much smaller than the one I currently am living but the location is closer to the station and I don’t have to live with pigs. I will miss the dryer, oven and heated toilet seat. I now realize what a good deal I had in this house. I need to own a house this is ridiculous. Besides all this nonesense, I am working in simultaneous projects and hopefully wilm get my motorcycle license next month.

Hoefler Wysocki | Architects update

There have been several board meetings and I didn’t make the final cut. Oh well, I must work harder than ever if I hope to make it to India by the summer. I can’t say that I am not disappointed in the boards decision but I do want to see what they made the decision on. I have been looking at logos so much lately, I think I will change my design focus for a while on personal things continuing my Yamanote Line pop up book. I have been thinking about building my own silk screening set up and print t shirts but alas I need funding. So much I want to do and not enough money to make things happen.

September 2009 updates

Sorry for not posting lately. I will post my summer vacation pics and videos soon. But first, I am going to get my Japanese drivers license and then a Japanese motorcycle license. My ultimate goal is to get a motocycle in Japan. I will get my license translated and then proceed with schedule a driving test from there I will have te ability to drive a car and a 50cc motorbike. I will then proceed to take classes for the mid sized motorcycle license. I am excited at the posibility to rent a car in Japan an go camping whenever I want or go to Costco and buy a 50kg barrel of pickles.

Besides this update, I have been working on my Japanese again and with Mina’s help, I have made some progress. I plan on starting to silk screen my designs on tshirts in the next weeks. I have narrowed my choice down to three silk screen shops but first I will try and see if I can find affordable silk screening materials so I can print th myself. I have been networking a lot in Tokyo and hopefully all the effort with produce fruit in terms of design work an hopefully a new job. All I really need is to get my Japanes ability up. I know I have been saying this for a long time but I am working on it slowly but surely.
