All About Andrew Sinclair
Way back in 2007 I came to Japan on a whim, fell in love with the country, and have been living here full-time since 2013. I’ve lived in Hiroshima, Kyoto and most recently Nagoya, and when I’m not working I’m usually found sightseeing or zooming around the Nagoya area on my bicycle.
What I like about Japan
Well, pretty much everything! But if I had to narrow it down I’d say the art and the history. I’m a big fan of traditional woodblock prints – they’re beautiful on an aesthetic level, and as windows into a vanished world. And Japanese history has it all; long periods of calm when traditional culture flourishes, as well as times of sweeping, dynamic change. It’s all fascinating!
