Yōkoso

Greetings! I was thinking what do to with my degree in Japanese studies and had this crazy thought that I’d start a blog, where I can share interesting bits about Japanese language and culture. There are many people out there who want to know more about Japan, and I know about Japan, so let’s meet here, Japan-fans! (Lovely thing, this internet.)

I want to do short posts, a couple of times per week, about various topics. I have a long list already, but feel free to add to it, or ask about things you’re curious about by commenting on my posts, and I’ll see what I can do! Let’s see how this method works out.

Look out for the first post about Japanese language in the next few days. Sign up for my RSS feed or subscribe to the e-mail newsletter so you can read my posts as soon as they are available! Or you can do that later, just check in every now and then, to see if you like this blog.

About me: I’m Katalin, I have a BA in Japanese studies (language & culture), I currently live in London, and I think this blog-project will be fun! I like tea and have a big collection of all kinds of mugs. I don’t really collect them, they just find me. I’m a language-maniac (there are a few more I know, some on elementary level, and I have a few more on my list I want to learn), and I love to write. Mostly fiction, so this blog-project will let me exercise my non-fiction writing muscles. Just in case.

See you next week, and remember, you already know the Japanese word for greetings ;)
