In this first episode, I share why I began LIVING NOTES — a quiet audio journal rooted in small observations from everyday life.

I talk about the moments that led me to start recording: the light in a room, the feeling of home, and the desire to capture gentle details that often go unnoticed.

This episode reflects on how slowing down, noticing space, and living with intention shaped the beginning of this project.

A soft introduction to the themes that continue throughout the series — design, living, and the quiet rhythms of life in Japan.
