On NHK this week
The NHK documentary, "Tomorrow," focuses on post-tsunami relief efforts in northern Japan. I host this week's program on volunteerism. Broadcast specs on TV and online are here . (It's a tad personal, since I attended kindergarten in Iwate, and my mother was raised there.)

Back to Iwate for NHK
I attended kindergarten in Morioka, Iwate Prefecture, when I lived with my grandparents. I revisited Iwate many times, accompanied by my mother. Now I am here to host a documentary for NHK, Japan's national broadcaster, on the aftermath of the 2011 quake and tsunami. Iwate is as beautiful and becalming as I remember it.
