My daughter was almost two years old when we moved from Japan to the United States. When I met friends of the friends we were staying with at first, sooner or later they’d ask: “So, what do you do?” Well, having a child was such an amazing and significant experience, that I’d answer: “I’m a mother”. It didn’t take long for me to notice that people expected a different answer, something that would define me, a label, a category: “the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker”.
I still can’t answer that question.
I now live near Santa Fe in New Mexico. Gradually, I acquired three cats: Chaco, Lila, and Angelina; and two dogs: Harold and Mieze. Actually, they found me rather than vice versa. My daughter lives in Boston.
I like to go hiking and to take photographs. Some of my pictures can be seen at my website, and at flat grey wall. And I design websites.
