BB10-Q (vol2) – Takada Ayuko
Hello to everyone out there in this uncertain world we find ourselves in. I hope this second installment of BB10-Q finds you well. After our maiden voyage with author Elle Lewis, we turn now to a reader & adventurer, Takada Ayuko.
Ayuko was kind enough to answer my questions and give me a glimpse into the many activities she keeps herself busy with. This lady doesn’t sit still much!
So if you enjoyed the first volume of BB10-Q and are in need of a little distraction now, read on! Ayuko’s English is close to perfect so I didn’t need to employ my mangled Japanese. Here we go!
