About Me
- Name: The Moody Minstrel
- Location: Namegata City, Ibaraki, Japan
I was born on a rainy day on the Oregon Coast (no surprises there) and through a rather convoluted sequence of events wound up in Japan. I'm a teacher by trade, moonlighting as a musician and composer. I also do quite a bit of writing on the side. I'm a dreamer, a thinker, a sayer, and a doer all wrapped in one deceptively mild-mannered package.

This picture looks like it could have been taken in Oregon somewhere.
My thoughts exactly. The mountains surrounding Kyoto remind me a LOT of the Coast Range mountains in Oregon. The only noticeable differences are the kind of flora, the signs in kanji, and those %$&* narrow roads!
... and the fact that the flowers don't speak English!
