Departing from Japan was hard, leaving a country which had given me so much life, joy and energy was difficult. I was moved by the people and their actions. As the plane took off the staff on the ground started waving at me and when I waved back, they waved even faster and I could see the smiles on their faces. Honestly, I call this the magic of Japan, its aura is something so special and unique. I have never felt such peace in my heart until going to this country. My time in Japan has not just inspired me in my art but also how to live a fuller life and be a better person. I know this will not be the last time I visit this special place.
