          My intrigue with what makes each of one us who we are started at a very young age.  Born in the USA, I then moved to Nairobi Kenya for 4 years, and grew up in Tokyo Japan for 10 years, followed by 4 years in Jakarta Indonesia and 7 years in Vancouver Canada.  As I moved around, I was immersed in each different culture and learnt the language - I grew up speaking Swahili, Japanese and now, speak English, French and Indonesian.  I began to recognize and see how the world was experienced and understood very differently between individuals of different cultures, languages, and religions.  It totally fascinated me how culture, language and religion shape us as individuals, down to unconscious habits and day-to-day activities.  As the elements in the surrounding environment changed with each move, I also began to see how I also adapted and changed accordingly.  The question came – "Well, then… Who am I?  What makes me me?”
