Name: Elyssa
From: Currently, Minnesota! I’ve also lived in Arizona, New Jersey, New York, and Texas.
What brings you to the tour?: I’ve been looking to return to Japan (this will be my fourth trip), but didn’t know anyone locally who had the resources to go. I didn’t want to go totally alone, and since I had attended presentations by Evan when he worked for a previous tour company, Pacset came immediately to mind.
Looking forward to: Shopping, Onsens, and the Ghibli Museum!
What’s on your desk?: Since I’m at work, a lot of work stuff, a Bad Cat calendar, and various Hello Kitty pens. I also have two lucky cat figurines (each has a different paw raised), and photos of my cat hanging up for all to enjoy.
Recent Anime: I just finished the second season of Sword Art Online, but I also liked Wolf Girl and Black Prince, Parasyte (still going), and Nozaki-kun. Frankly, I’m still reeling over Attack on Titan’s twists and turns.
Anything else?: I am super duper ultra excited about this trip, meeting everyone, and making great memories and friends.
