BuildingMyBento

I'm originally from the NYC-area, though I've also lived in various cities in East Asia for a total of nearly three years. In addition to unexpectedly encountering unusual buildings, Language study is one of my hobbies, and a pivotal reason for this is to decipher menus. Fluent Eater. I'd like that title.
