I am a Macrobiovegan. I've been practicing Macrobiotics over 20 years, and I'm also a vegan.
My dream is to make this world peaceful for all the beings. I believe it is possible when we are truly compassionate to animals as well as to humans with respect to the nature of this planet. I hold a teaching Macrobiotic diploma from the most prestigious Macrobiotic school, Macrobiotic Cooking School, Lima in Japan. I conduct Macrobiotics and vegan classes in Japan, Malayasia and Singapore where I resided for over 20 years before.
