Posted on April 15, 2025 by CD

I find myself in such a strange place. I don’t mean in terms of where I physically am – I’m back in Otaru, Japan at my house, Satoshi Manor.  I mean it’s a strange place to be mentally, emotionally, spiritually. China was such an unexpected joy. I made some great friends in a very short…

Where My Vanagon Goes – A Hawaii NFT Collection with Utility, Style, and Beauty

Posted on April 17, 2022 by CD

I just realized I neglected to write about launching my NFT Collection “Where My Vanagon Goes“. It’s an homage to a couple of things I really love – VW Vans (see my book covers dating back to 2003 if you doubt this), Hawaii (see my home since 2001), and NFTs – I mean, NFTs just…
