  • Description

    I’m 28 years old and originally from Japan. I worked full-time as a designer in Tokyo for five years.
    I studied product design at university, focusing on physical objects that support people’s daily lives—such as household goods and lifestyle items.

    I really enjoyed my job, but over time, I began to question the routine of commuting on packed trains every morning and spending my days sitting at a desk. That’s when I decided to leave my job and set off on a journey to observe, listen to, and experience different ways of living. I hope to gain inspiration and insights for the next chapter of my life.

    Currently, I’m living in Spain on a working holiday visa. I’m also enrolled in a comprehensive Japanese international health insurance plan, which covers most medical treatments.

    Here is a link to some of my past work from when I was a student. My illustration skills have improved since then▼

  • More details about your skills

    I studied design and art for four years at university. I’m skilled in creating illustrations using ballpoint pens, mural design, painting, and sculpture.

    During middle and high school, I played softball and practiced kyūdō (Japanese archery), so I’m comfortable engaging in physical activities.

    In my professional career, I was responsible for overseeing all aspects of product proposals, including graphic design. I can handle related tasks accordingly.

    My English proficiency is at a beginner level, and I’m currently learning Spanish.

  • What else ...

    I don’t speak languages fluently, but I want to communicate a lot using drawings and translation tools.
    Through this journey, I want to learn about different ways of life.
    I am very concerned about the serious suicide rate in Japan, and I want to give people a place to escape and show them other ways of living.
    That is why I want to learn about many people’s lives and lifestyles.
    By the way, I just bought sushi vinegar and seaweed in Barcelona, so if there is some sliced fish or vegetables, I can make sushi at the table!
