As I often say, most of my energy comes from the students I work with. I've been very lucky to have enjoyed so many warm and long-lasting relationships with young people, many of whom are now my friends and colleagues; and many of them can be seen in the photos on these pages. I am hoping to add pages in Japanese soon, but the photos can be enjoyed in any language. The photo below of R.U.E.D.G. members and me was taken during a memorable drinking session (!) on 6th December, 1993.

My second great source of energy is the sea.
