RE: [Goanet]Re: Any Goans in Japan?

[Rui Collaco]

I know there was one Goan teaching Portuguese at a Tokyo University (Sofia 
university?), for many years. He is Marinho �lvares, from Loutulim, and is 
probably retired by now. When I was in Japan in 1999 I thought of looking 
for him, but my 10 days there were too busy for that.
Wish you a nice stay, my wife and I enjoyed every moment of it, especially 
Kyoto, it's precious. I found Japan to be the most civilised country in the 
world.

Hello folks,
We will be visiting Japan for a month starting March 4, and would like to
meet any Goan residents in Kyoto, Hiroshima, Osaka, Nara, Kyushu-Fukuoka,
Nagasaki & Kagoshima, Kochi; Hokkaido, Miyagi, Shizuoka, Kanagawa, Tokyo
and places that maybe be nearby to these. Cecilia and I will be in Kyoto,
Hiroshima and Tokyo for a few days where I will be studying some hanga
carving/printing, sketching and the rest will be spent blitzing across on
the Japan Rail pass.
Our stays are planned. However, I am particularly keen on meeting people,
sharing visual ideas and experiencing a Japanese tempered Goan-ness if one
has indeed evolved.
Any response will be much appreciated,

Venantius J Pinto + Cecilia Castelino-Pinto
