News Sushi #66: Morsels of News from Japan and Beyond

News Sushi #66 And we keep serving News Sushi!

Editor Note:It is Friday and that means it is time for the World Famous, soon to be Intergalactic Famous, News Sushi from our very own, Hamish Downie. Hamish brings us a decidedly different slant on Pop Culture as viewed through the lens of a non-native living in Japan.

Thank you Hamish, for your insights.

My trip to Wakayama

I go to Wakayama once or twice a month… do you want to know why? Because it’s ridiculously beautiful. Plus, my partner lives there, so that’s a major plus too!

Introducing… Veronique Tsugenheim
Her music is a little Tori Amos… but, very unique. She lives in the Mountains of Koya-san in a Temple with her husband and kids. This music piece was “recorded in the forest one snowy morning. Spontaneous and magical moment inspired by the trees and their mysterious language.”
