In my last blog, I talked about my grandmother, who had just passed away.
What I didn’t mention was the tiny problem I had trying to get back to Japan for the funeral. This sad event was going to be held in Japan, but I was in Los Angeles – 5,500 miles away from Tokyo and an additional 30 miles from Tokyo to my hometown. Overall, it would take me 17 hours to get from...
My grandmother passed away last month. She lived to be 99 years old. Yes, ONE CENTURY! - Unbelievable.

Part 4: I can’t believe I made it to Day 2!
After all the intensity of Day 1, I was fortunate to get even ONE hour of good sleep! I vowed not to consume any energy drinks on Day 2 and would stick to drinking only bottled water – out of my YogaHub non-toxic polycarbonate water bottle, of...

Part 2: Am I really here?
In my last blog, I told you about how I’d always dreamt of playing in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas. Well, I was lucky enough to be able to make that dream a reality by having various sponsors, including YogaHub, generously agree to sponsor me. Continue Reading: World Series of Poker – Part II
