Uhm… hey. I guess I should properly introduce myself, right?

I'm Hiroshi Takeda (武田 弘志), 27, city admin by day… and honestly still figuring things out the rest of the time. I live in Yokohama, in a tiny flat that's way too close to the library (dangerous if you like midnight reading).

I'm not here in any official capacity though. This blog is just me, the guy behind the glasses. I might share thoughts, places I like, dumb haikus I write when I can't sleep, or stuff I overhear in cafés. I enjoy plants, books, and good tea. I'm also single and… probably too good at awkward silences.

Fun fact? I used to get called "old soul" as a kid. Now I just embrace it.

Also: I'm terrible at karaoke. Please don't make me sing...
