Roaming the World with You

In a cramped little space lives a young woman who is middle-aged in appearance, with ideals and a drive to improve herself. To outsiders, she seems utterly depraved, but all she wants is to get away from the world. A cigarette, a computer, a desk, an easel, a book, and a bed: these are what keep my dreams alive.

A fish tank with three little goldfish, a cool breeze, and walls covered with classic posters and posters for films by director Wong Kar-wai and works by Hayao Miyazaki.

With an internet connection, I listen to music every day and want to read, but never have time for it. I only care about making money, like a foolish human being.

Sometimes lazy, sometimes full of drive.

I love to laugh, but I am lonely. I never confide in others about my inner world, burying all my troubles deep inside.
