Daughter, sister, friend, wife, mom of 3 young adult kids, international educator, connector, lifelong learner, traveler, author, blogger, creator, translator/interpreter (Japanese/English), fitness devotee, gardener, outdoor explorer, dark chocolate aficionado, and lover of life! Committed to rising up again when knocked down and going the distance, whatever that means 🙂.(That's my three kids + daughter-in-law with me in Firenze, Italy ⬆️a few years back. Our fam has expanded since then!)
