I am a student at the University of Illinois majoring in Business and East Asian Languages and Cultures.

I try to travel abroad as much as possible, even if my wallet is thin. Most of my studies are in Japan, but I plan to visit many more places in my life.

I do photography as a hobby. It helps me capture the blissful moments when I encounter new places and meet new people.

To put it all in perspective I keep an online blog/journal @ www.jonslifeabroad.blogspot.com

Feel free to leave comments and opinions. I hope you enjoy the world through my eyes.
