This is a story about an international couple raising and home educating three young boys on a small island in Japan, half living in buses, engaged in organic, self-sufficient farming in the middle of a mountain forest while dealing with climate, cultural, and personal challenges. These pages are about pretty much anything and everything all guided by our family motto, Taking Chances, Making Changes, Being Happy. Thank you very much for joining us on our ongoing crazy adventure.

Home - Story - December 2011
December 1, 2011 - Back Online, English Global Group Reborn. Cooler temperatures this month brought the end of my work on the adjacent house. It was really difficult to work at the other house with Shai. Days were much cooler and not as long. With over 90 percent of the work completed it seemed like a better idea to finish everything during Spring of next year. Now pretty much back in the house I turned my attention to my Internet projects. I was trying to figure out what to do with the English Global Group site. I decided to turn it into an English language learning video and activity site. At the end of the month there were already over 600 videos and activities uploaded to the site. We went to the farms on the last day of the month and played football with Shai. We spent a quiet New Years Eve at home.

December 4, 2011 - Facebook Post - Studio Nearing Completion. Began tile work on the BeeMee TV studio. Really want to finish this project. Those things between the tiles are actually 1 yen Japanese coins. Definitely the best tile spacers in the world.
