Jamaipanese Interview

Today I would like to introduce you to a fellow Japan blogger, Kirk of www.jamaipanese.com

So we have the man, but lets get to know the blogger a little more, shall we?

1 Tell jDonuts readers a little bit about yourself.

Hey JD readers. My name is Kirk, I am from Kingston Jamaica, I am tall, slim and a very proud otaku.

2 Why did you start blogging about Japan?

Japan is the source of or plays an important role in many of my hobbies and interests. I hope to visit one day and started learning Japanese. My blog is a outlet for my Japan related interests, a place to practice my Japanese (albeit very limited) and to meet other people that share my interests.

3 Why have you continued blogging about Japan?

My blog has done well to teach me more about Japan and I have met many friends and been exposed to many things I would not have exposed to if I wasn't blogging. I am most excited about the people I will meet and the experiences I will have in the future...due to my blog.

4 What Anime character are you most like and why?

Jiraiya - respected, skilled, a rebel, powerful, jovial and free spirited. I'm not as big a pervert as him but I like how he is sincere and true to his character.

5 If you only had one day in Japan and ￥10,000 what would you do and why?

thats easy....Akihabara. I've read so much, watched so much on TV and read so much...I can't wait to have a first hand experience making the Akihabara pilgrimage that in my mind all otaku must do ^_^. I'd need 100 times that.

6 What are two of your favorite posts (on your own blog) and why?

The three places in Japan I would love to visit - A post talks about some places in Japan I would like to visit and why.

and
Jamaipanese.com online - My first ever post on my blog that I read from to time to time to be inspired.

7 What are two of your favorite posts (on other Japan blogs) and why?
