I love all things Japanese except squat toilets.
To name a few: momiji, sakura, kinokonyama chocolates, hoji cha, nabe, onsens, etc etc.
If, by chance, I win, can you send the gift to my mom (who loves green tea and would love your draw string bag)...I can't receive any food stuffs in Qatar.
I'm currently taking a Japanese class and it's making me appreciate the Japanese a lot more than I did before.
I love the way they have an organized lifestyle, their beautiful kimonos, their food, their candy is sweet and unique, their bonsai trees, etc.
And of course, Hello Kitty & Anime. =]
I would love to win this to share with my Japanese class. =]
