Days of Guiding

I’ve been back on track since our borders had been opened after a long period of border closure, FINALLY!!

I couldn’t be more excited that we have international tourists back in Japan again and I feel everything is going forward to where it should be.

Tested positive for COVID, FINALLY!

Yay! I tested positive for COVID, finally!

I had a fever on 25 Aug and asked my wife to take me to the hospital to take a test. There I was told to stay at home for 11 days in a row since then. Next day, my wife also had a fever and tested positive and was told the same.

So that makes 12 days of our staying home in total. Now we have been almost recovered but we still have 3 more days to go! Wish us luck!

Time to Play the Guitar!

I’ve been playing the guitar since I was in high school. I love Rock music, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal in particular. This time, I decided to play some tunes off of each of 10 rock albums that influenced me the most.

The followings are 3 of 10.

筋肉少女帯 (a.k.a. “King Show”)
