About Me
I'm Sam. Aussie by birth, but Japan got its hooks into me early, growing up around a Japanese-owned horse farm and a rotating cast of homestay guests, with Pokemon and Dragon Ball Z filling in the rest. One trip over there was enough to confirm what years of integration had already done. This site is where I write about the culture, history, sport, hobbies and any interesting things I come across. I'm just a bloke who's been quietly into this stuff since before he could read.
