Default 国際結婚
For those people interested in finding out about international marriage from the perspective of a young Japanese woman, my wife is writing a weblog documenting the torurous ordeal of being married to me (haha).

Japanese only I'm afraid.

Doesn't have a great deal to do with budo, but still, its interesting to see percieved and real differences in cpontemporary Western and Japanese culture.

George sent me two of those as a wedding present last year. My wife *loves* them.

you could always use babelfish, even if the translation isn't accurate

you just copy the text that you want to read and paste it into the window on the site and use the appropriate translation.

Ok, I did it and it was worst than engrish!!! I even translate the thing to spansih and it almost have no sense at all. But I think the girl who wrote this got many questions about her life... Anyway the blog is really beautiful and relaxing. Very femenine.
Well she wrote a post in English, but it isn't quite as eloquent as her Japanese. It also sounds rather aggressive, but rest assured she's joking.

With regard to the Manga mentioned above, I'll check it out.

Are there any parts about the husband skulking off every night to practice? I'm hoping for some help in that department......
