sataoyama life
then
shallow breathing in Tokyo,
now
deep breathing in Satoyama*, Noto
( *satoyama = forest, hill )
I had a cake shop in Tokyo
my daily routine ...
bake hundreds of cakes,
deliver to cafes,
clean up
really racing with time and
long time work
while satisfied with business,
wondering how to live next decades ...
so,
headed out for next hints,
to world travelling
what I found ...
my healthy life
could be hints for someone
and
want to enjoy my life more
back to Japan then,
met a neglected house,
hidden in bushes,
birds flying ...
the house looked sad,
but authentic
want to do something
with this potential house …

keyaki zelkova tree
turned into a dining table,
antique chest
customized to a shoe closet
and …
life needs melody !

surrounded by my favorites and
take a deep breath
stepping forward,
painting new colors
this is my new story,
blue x lilac
