About Me

I am from Japan, living in Rwanda since 2017. You will always find me with a pen and notebook.

Come to think of it, I love notebooks ever since I was a little girl. Who remembers those pretty diary that have mini-padlock to keep your secret?

As I navigate my life especially in 30th, I noticed how much I am supported by this habit of writing. And slowly started sharing my passion to my friends, which grew into a bigger journaling community over the course of years.

My favorite items

Filofax Nappa

Introduced this beautiful Personal ring system since 2024. I’m still experimenting what works best for me and it has been a super fun journey.

TN passport

Traveler’s notebook from Japan is the cutest Every-Day-Carry planner. Having a passport vibe at hand is a great way to romanticize my mundane life.

hobonichi

Hobonichi

Hobonichi A6 is my memory keeping book. One page a day seemed a little too much in the beginning, but found it fun to capture small joys from the day.

notey

Notey

Notey is a chuky notebook I found in Africa. Handmade in Kenya by an amazing lady. To spread the love, I’m partnering with the brand to share this notebook in Rwanda.
