About this site

Thank you for visiting nonakayasuo.com. This page explains what the site is for and a few things to keep in mind when using it.

What this site is for

I write about day-to-day things on note, Instagram, and elsewhere. This site keeps the part of that record that builds up over time — things I count again or put back together later: how many books I have read, the countries and cities I have visited, travel journals, my research, and yearly music summaries. Research notes are written on note and linked from the Research page.
