Katya Yuri

I am a writer, an artist, and a grad student living in the wonderful city of Nagoya. I used to teach for the JET programme and working within the public school system, as well as marriage to my wonderful Japanese husband opened my eyes to the "real Japan" that we don't usually get to see as foreigners unless we know what to look for and what questions to ask. Not all of the things I see are pretty. In fact, quite the contrary is often the case. I write about my observations on my blog: www.katyayuri.com/blog. You can also see some of my artwork inspired by Japanese street fashion here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/GarnetCrystalGarden.
