We hope our readers have been enjoying the longer interviews with Yokohama illuminaries that we’ve been running these last few months. We find the personal stories interesting, educational and inspiring. They give us a better sense of the people who are shaping Yokohama culture and the local economy. These people may be friends, neighbors, former classmates or even clients. Hearing the details of their lives, we feel the closeness of this great community. Many of these individuals have been engaged in their work here for decades. But it doesn’t necessarily take that long to make a mark in the city where you live. Positive contributions–whether volunteering, starting a business, or blogging–make a difference now and often become roads to greater heights. Make your mark now folks! We’d love to feature you some day…
