Hello everybody, my name is Andy and im the manager here at Leafcup.

People always ask me why I came to Japan. Well - to make a long story short.. I used to work as a programmer ( ソフトウェアエンジニア ) in beautiful TNQ, Australia.
One day after work I ran into this incredibly beautiful Japanese girl, and after dating for a while I decided to follow her back to Japan. Today, 4 years later we are married and expecting our first child. I have never regretted making this decision, but its true what they say; life takes strange turns sometimes.

So what do I do in Tokyo?
Well, ever since I was a kid I've loved technology and electronics, so when Im not busy working I love window shopping in Akihabara and wasting money at game centers.
I know I might sound like an おたく, but I do have other hobbies as well ^-^ Here are some of them:

- Traveling ( I've been to over 30 countries )
- Photography ( Im definitely not a professional, but feel free to watch some of my photos here )
- Music
- Clubbing
- Beer
- Scuba diving ( PADI Advanced Open Water certified )
- Sports ( Baseball, football, icehockey )

I currently live in Ooizumi-Gakuen, Nerima, which is a fantastic place on the Seibu-Ikebukuro line. Its close to some of my favorite places in Tokyo and Saitama ( 石神井公園, 所沢, 秩父, 長瀞, etc )

See you at Leafcup soon.

Andy
