The decor, with its dazzling lights and modern aesthetics, truly made me feel as if I had stepped into another country.

I’m Ken from Toronto, Canada, and I currently work as an English teacher in Japan. Fascinated by Japanese literature and history, I was drawn to live here to immerse myself further in the culture. I’m actively engaged in the Japanese gay community and have a particular interest in the unique culture of “urisen” bars. Living in Japan has allowed me to act as a bridge between cultures while continuing to grow personally.
