Yes, You.
To everyone who helped donate to the Tohoku Earthquake relief, a huge thank you. Together we raised AU$800 which will be deposited to Second Harvest Japan now that I'm back in town. If you'd like to know more about why I chose to donate to Second Harvest, check out their work here.
Everyone who bought a set of the postcards will receive an email confirmation and thank you very soon.
Overall, there has been an enormous response to the disaster, especially through online resources such as Twitter. For once I'm actually thankful for the speed of social networking. It allowed accurate news reports and support networks to spread, which is necessary after such a devastating event.
Looking on the brighter side of things though, Spring is finally here in Tokyo, the mood is lightening up a bit and people are getting back to their daily routines. We all know how much work is going on in the affected areas but can rest assured that we've helped in any way we can, and know now that more supplies are getting through.
So on that note: Expect some new and exciting blog posts to come! I'm pretty energised to be back in Tokyo, with lots and lots to share on C&T.
