Wabi Zakka 

Ebi Akiyama

 

Third Culture Kid* turned 30-something Mama.

I'm a working mother living in Singapore with my husband and our 1 year-old daughter.

 

I mainly use social media via Instagram and Blogging to connect with like-minded working mothers, who are (or have families that are) either TCK, bi-cultural as well as others who have a connection with or an interest in Japan. 

 

When I'm not rushing between work, the nursery and home to cook dinners, I try to do small handcrafted zakka projects. I love Japanese Aesthetics and Design (wabi sabi) and also Zakka- hence Wabi Zakka. 

 

I curate and run a small online shop- Japan Mama- where I promote Made in Japan and Handmade Items to parents living in Singapore. (post-note: I'm going to be travelling a lot in 2016 so this shop isn't getting much attention, please stop on by and help me clear out the SAYONARA SALE!)

 

*Third Culture Kid (TCK) is a term used to refer to children who were raised in a culture outside of their parents’ culture for a significant part of their development years

 

こんにちは。エビと申します。
私に、「何人？」って、よく聞かれたよ。
実は、Third Culture Kid (TCK)って、両親の文化と違う第３国の文化で育っている子供のことです。

現在１才の娘、１００％の日本人旦那とシンガポールに住んでいます。
