Hi, everyone! An update at long last! As you may or may not have heard, I’m recently returned from a 10-day study trip to our neighbor Japan – an exciting and illuminating experience for me. I’m eager to share the details (and pictures), but the amount of information is so monstrously huge that I can’t write about it properly all in one post. I think I’ll do one post, and one photo album, for each city, so expect that series to be in the works over the next few days. I should have plenty of time to work on it, since with the lunar new year coming up, everything will be closed down…
Also: thank you so much, everyone who sent me Christmas cards and letters! It means so much to me to hear from you! I have them all set up on my (increasingly crowded) desk and they brighten my day!
