Hi guys. I completely understand and respect your privacy boundaries. It makes sense. I can tell you do put a lot of hard work into your podcast/YouTube broadcasts and also the newsletter. Very creative and well done. Yes, I am looking forward to returning to Japan and Kyoto. I may go down to Ishigaki once again as well. More haikus will be on the way...

Hello guys. I have noticed you have really up'ed your game on the weekly newsletter. I can appreciate how much work it is. Not easy at all. Great work!! I am spending about 60 days in Japan starting early October. Maybe we meet up? I spend most of my time in Kyoto as my home base. So, here is a Kyoto Conbini Haiku I wrote. The Samurais ate rice and miso soup every day:

Thank you for your kind words about our newsletter! It's motivating to hear from readers and listeners.

As for meeting up, we're genuinely touched by the invitation. However, we generally maintain a bit of distance for privacy reasons. It's a boundary we've set for ourselves, and we hope you can respect that. We hope this doesn't dampen your enthusiasm for our work.

Enjoy your time in Kyoto, and do keep sharing your experiences, like the great haiku!
