Issues of identity outside of America

I haven’t shown them that much in other countries yet. I spent the summer living in Japan, living in Yokohama and so I did bring my portfolio with me and I showed them around there and people were fairly interested there because the outmarriage rate is starting to become bigger in Japan.

I mean, I would never be able to write that.” It was still the kind of “enryo” thing, “I would never be able to say that”—but they were interested.
