Survivor of the 3/11 disasters in Japan. Moved with my wife and daughter to Auckland from our rural Japanese home after the Fukushima meltdowns.

Learned traditional rice growing and harvesting methods in Japan. Grew small gardens around our home there as well. After what we lived through, committed to living an even healthier and more earth-friendly and self-sufficient lifestyle. Started reading about permaculture during this process.

Looking into taking my PDC certificate course ASAP.
