Hi, Alice–
Want you to know that lots of people who know that you and Sean are in Japan have been in touch to see how you are doing. I am sorry some of your friends are leaving, and I can’t imagine trying to pressure you to give up an opportunity you’ve worked toward for so long! I just wish I could win a free trip to Japan to get to see you….in the meantime, all the best as you struggle toward “normalcy” with the rest of your adopted country.
Love,
Mum
Hey Alice and Sean! I have a question for you two! On my blog I have an ongoing series that features Japan Bloggers talking about their favorite places. I’d love to feature you guys! All I would need is a paragraph or so, maybe a picture, about your favorite place in Japan. Here are some links to previous posts I’ve made in the series. If interested, please email me at kaleyjapan@gmail.com! Thanks!

Hey! I am really impressed with your blog! I have to make this quick since I am in a rush.
My blog is called Shinai Aya (http://shinaiaya.wordpress.com) and my dream is to one day live and teach English in Japan. So I started a blog about my life but the problem is that I’m getting hardly any traffic. May I ask that you advertise my blog on your blog since your blog is doing very well? In return I will do the same for you.
Waiting for your reply!
Just wanted to let you guys know that I love your blog 🙂
Congratulations! You have been nominated for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award: http://haikugirl.me/2012/04/01/the-very-inspiring-blogger-award/ because I love reading your blog!(^_^)v
Hello Sean and Alice!
I run a monthly podcast called Bridges in which I feature a single content creator out of Japan and their content. I was really hoping that you two would let me feature your site on this month’s show.
This doesn’t require any effort on your part besides your permission to talk about your site while doing some screenshots of some of your content.
You can think of it as a 10-15 minute commercial for your blog and an effort to promote your stuff. Of course, your site will be linked in both the video and the corresponding blog.
Let me know what you think!
Best,
Hiroki Matsuuchi
Sure, that sounds awesome! Let us know if you need anything/have any questions/etc. Thanks! 😀
You had me at Mountain Dew corn snacks. Thanks!
Haha, I’m glad to hear it! 😀
Hi there.
“Under a cherry tree, there are no strangers.”
Kobayashi Issa
What a lovely quote! Thanks for dropping by!
Hi Alice,
I came across your blog while looking for a painting of Songkran Festival in Thailand, https://superhappyawesome.wordpress.com/2014/04/28/songkran-%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%87%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%95%E0%B9%8C/.
I am wondering if you could please contact me regarding the royalty fee of using this image for a souvenir distributed at a culture event in Irvine, CA. Please contact me at watsa.ch@gmail.com. I can give you more information about this volunteer project. Thank you very much and look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Watsa
Found this site by accident. Loving forward to receiving posts from you in the future. I am also a WP BLOGGER…two websites, a mishmash of South meets East…..Kanzen Sakura and poetry only blog, Aki no Koe. Interested to see your work and interest in anime and your living in Japan. Nice meeting you. I hope you will come visit and feel welcomed. I have paraphrased Issa ‘ s quote to meet the South meets East….There are no strangers beneath the magnolia tree. It hearken back to the post about my first haiku, written at 6.
