My 6 tatami-mat study

in San Diego (many years ago)


The study is supplied with my favorite things.



My self-introduction

I 'm Inoue Hiromi (井上 博民),working at an office in Matsuyama, Japan. My family are my wife, Naoko and my son, Tomoyuki. I bought a tiny house in a suburb of Matsuyama , here at Kawauchi town. Through my study's window I take a look at Shikoku Mountains every day. Fortunately Heaven gives me a calm and simple life.


Tomoyuki ( born in 1993)
with Timothy Russell (poet, haiku poet, with gentle soul)
