One of my students, Ayana recommended I should keep a list of one happy thing a day.
Todays happy thing: FINALLY went to NAB this morning. It was such a good workout, I want to try to go more!
What’s your happy thing for today?

New York
Everyone has their happy place. I would definitely say my go- to place is New York. I use to go there once a year for vacation and would never get tired of it. The years I lived in Japan, I didn’t get to go to New York, but now I’m itching to go back. I want to share some pictures I took while I was in New York right before I moved to Japan. If you click the “2017” tab in the picture section, the password is “oneworld”. After the terrorist attacks in 2001, New York had to rebuild it’s city and the building, now called One World is one of my favorite places to visit. They have set a beautiful memorial for everyone who lost their lives during the 9-11 attacks. I also think it’s amazing how- on each of the victims birthdays, a rose is placed at their name to remember them. They have been doing this tradition every day of every year since they built this memorial. In addition, there is a huge inward waterfall placed where the old twin towers stood. It is definitely a solemn place, but graceful and mesmerizing at the same time.

SF Taiko Performance
I went to a taiko performance and it was so cool! Kind of wish I stuck with it for longer than I did.
This performance was special because two of the sensei were from Japan and came to perform with Grand Master Tanaka and his students. I hope you enjoy these clips as much as I enjoyed being there!
