日本のかたがただけでなく、私の住むデンマークの人、ほかにもスウェーデンやオランダ、フランス、イギリス、アメリカなど、北欧のデザインが大好きだったり、手作りが大好きだったり、小さな可愛いものや毎日の小さな幸せを見つけて大事にしているような女の人たちが、訪れてくれます。可愛いものは、世界をつなぐ!?のかもしれません。なんて。
デンマークの、Ida イーダさんも、そんなつながりで、私の日記を見つけてくれて、"Stylish Blogger Award スタイリッシュなブログ・アワード"と私の日記を表彰してくれました。照れてしまいつつ、うれしかったです。
以下、英文でお礼を書いています。
I am a happy girl, who has awarded "Stylish blogger Award". Thank you so much for your sweet comment, Ida! :-) I love to look at your blog...so many beauties and inspiration!

♥ So I will share 8 things about myself...hmmm. I am a bit shy but I will try....
1. I used to work in a marketing and analysis team in a Danish shipping company, and that job brought me to Denmark as a start. But when I started to live in Denmark, I was fascinated to see beautiful designs and handmade treasures, ..then I found out I love to do marketing for designers products and hand made products a lot more than marketing about shipping..and my dream came true and I now have my company, introducing Scandinavian designs to Japan.
2. My most favorite shop in the entire universe is Créme de la Créme a la Edgar and Liebe. I am completely in love to their universe and don't think I can live without these shops..
3. I moved to 3 cities (Copenhagen, Svendborg, Odense) while I have been living in Denmark. It was difficult to move around, while I was still trying to get used to my life in Denmark and start from scratch every time...but now I have freinds in both Sælland and Fyn apart from my home country Japan and I met such a sweet ,nice and talented people from many places through this blog world, which makes me happy..
4. When I delivered my little boy Gustav, I got caesarean surgery and then got infection, and had to get operated 10 times in 1 month. The wound could not be sewed at the end as it got operated too many times, so I had to live with open wound and a huge band-aid for a while. That was tough and so painful but anyway, I got sweet woderful baby Gustav who is healthy and happy, so it was worth a work.
5. I live with 3 cats, 1 of them moved in by himself. 1 of them is called Jonas and every night he sleeps next to me, putting his head on my arm and shoulder. I cannot sleep without Jonas cat.
6. Once I have lived with 10 cats - because our neighbour had moved away, leaving a pregnant cat. She delivered kitten in front of the empty house, and scratching the window of the house where it used to be her home..we couldn't bare to ignore that. We had 2 cats originally, and then 1 cat moved in by himself (he was very sick and so dirty but now turned out to be very pretty cat) and the mom cat and babies...It was a big work and took a time and effort to find new nice home for them. But even so, I still miss them sometimes. I am glad I took care of those cats and I really hope they are living happily with new family...
7. My dream is to have a sweet little house and make a sweet room for Gustav, using the retro wallpapers I have been collecting. And when I get more time, I dream to learn more about patchwork and make Schteiner doll, amigurumi by myself. And I wish to have a trip to Japan every year, eat as much Japanese food as I want and drink sake (Japanese wine) while enjoyning hot spring bath and chit chat with girl freinds. And maybe a little shop in Japan, introducing beautiful Scandinavian handmade products.Or maybe a little shop in Denmark, introducing beautiful Japanese handmade products.. And and...my dream goes on... hehe.
8. Apart from introducing Scandinavian designs to Japan, I am also interested in introducing society of Scandinavia to Japan - and why Danish people is known to be "the most happiest people in the world", by its social system. When I started to know about Danish society, I was surprised at many differences with Japanese society (it has been following the way of American social system) and how the social welfare is developed. Of course any country has its own problem, pros and cons and struggles, but I think many parts of the world can learn a lot from Scandinavia.
Ok, I wrote a lot! (and many about cats....oh no) I will continue later...see u!
So nice to learn more about you!
